The problem with sticking it to the Man is that you're sticking everyone who he's ever slept with.

Wait.

Seriously, you have to shaft all the people who work for him just to get to The Man. And I don't know if I have that kind of shaft in me. I might have to get some other guys, just to help me shaft the Man and everyone near him.
It's emotive, inaccurate language used by companies lobbying for restrictive IP laws
I know of a fair amount of actual people, not faceless 'companies', who use the word thusly. In fact, you just saw a few in the Digg thread. IMO, if a given work or creation is being used or possessed without permission, within reasonable limits, it's theft.
