All you have to do is take someone else's code, remove attribution, add in 
some of your own code, encrypt it and sell it. Steal is a term used when you 
take from someone else and in doing so, limit them. If you charge for 
something that someone else wrote for free, your stealing their name, their 
work and any financial consideration people may make towards the original 
writer as thanks. Yeh, steal is the right word.
