> The barber example is not theft. You cannot steal a haircut. You may be harming the barber, but it's not theft. [...] Words matter!
Then why is it legally considered "theft of services", which is a crime that directly includes the word "theft" in the name? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theft_of_services
Interesting. I wasn't aware of that, I stand corrected.
I think it's a bit silly to consider it theft, but I have to eat my words in this case :)
