One of the earliest cases of the fight against copyright and intellectual property dates back to the sixth century AD. The pirate turned out to be a Columba saint, a famous Irish monk and preacher. According to legend, for several nights he quietly copied a book that belonged to another saint, Finian. Back then, all books were copied by hand, so it was quite a laborious task. But the book was also very rare and valuable. Historians speculate that it may have been one of the rare translations of the Psalter.
