I'm sorry, I'm just rather disdainful of the next generation and their entire "it's not illegal, it's on the internet!@212!" attitude. It's illegal in the same sense as copying CDs is illegal. IF the company concerned is looking for private servers and IF they decide you're worth their time, then you haven't got a snowball's chance in hell, come your court date. Those're two big 'if's, but it annoys the hell out of me when people try to deny it, not wanting to know they're doing something technically illegal.
And just to put it in perspective, I've actually configured and run three different software versions of RO servers for friends to use inside of their own house. I knew what I was doing was illegal, they knew it was, but the odds of getting caught were so miniscule that nobody cared for the two months it was up.
