Question

Hello, in the Otzar HaChochma software, it is not possible to print the Shas Oz VeHadar, but it is possible to bypass this restriction and print the Gemara pages using various techniques. Is this allowed?

Answer

It is forbidden to print, and see the source for the reason of the prohibition.

Source

There is a dispute among the poskim regarding the obligation of copyright. In practice, it is a Torah doubt concerning the prohibition of theft, and therefore one should be stringent. Certainly, this printing, when the copyright holders have demanded to cancel this possibility, is forbidden according to the poskim who are stringent about copyright.
