Sleep is one of the great gifts that we are granted as humans.
I see the propaganda has gotten to you! 8 hours of sleep a night -- bah! Computers don't sleep; why should I?

I believe that situation is why he stored two encrypted copies, one of which was with his asymmetric key (hence, can't be changed by someone else, assuming the key is secure).
Easy detail to miss, but oh so important.
Neither deprives the neighbor of a thing.
I might note that this is true if the neighbor in question has an ISP that doesn't limit data transfer. On the other hand, if your neighbor does have transfer limits (250Gb for Comcast, presently. Not sure about others.), then you *are* depriving him of that data transfer.
The problem is, the requirements to obtain and hold a driver's license are far too lax, and so we license a lot of people for driving that we shouldn't, because they're not safe drivers at all. Among other things...
Although I basically agree with this sentiment, one thing that should be considered is what someone does when the fail to get a license. At present, decent public transportation exists only in select urban areas (and even then, it's often crap). Walking isn't really an option, either, especially farther into rural areas where food is simply too far away to walk to.
If we could solve that problem, I'd be all for tougher licensing! (For the record, I don't presently hold a license; I use the bus.)
