Cable companies call it stealing, but it is not the same thing.

I wholeheartedly agree. It isn't stealing. It's just plain vanilla
dishonest. Dishonest people can be dishonest and yet not steal. They just
do a variety of other activities.

A man and woman are not married to each other. They check into a motel.
The clerk asks, "Are you married", and they both answer yes at the same
time. Are they being honest?

No. If they were honest, they wouldn't be there in the first place.

Beware of a man who says he's honest. He's likely to lie about other
things.
