Do not steal
Do not take property, labor, credit, data, or resources without consent.

Corpus definition
Do not take property, labor, credit, data, or resources without consent.
This is the atlas’s definition, not a substitute for a tradition’s own interpretation. Scope, exceptions and translations require review of each source.
Preserved calculation difference
The original index differs from recomputed unique-system or specific-anchor counts. Both are retained; the source file is unchanged.
