Not knowing something is a crime doesn't stop you from being prosecuted for committing it.

"I didn't know that was copyrighted" is not a valid defence.

Digital text notes take up practically no storage space. You'll spend more on new notebooks to write in over a year than digital storage space for the exact same content
