Copywrite laws are they to vague?

Greed is not, itself, evil. Rather, it is a motivation for evil. Most of us have some measure of greed, which is (usually) kept in check by our moral / ethical standards.

The conscious decision to violate those standards, motivated by greed, is evil.

Having a set of personal standards that is incompatible with the society you live in is also considered to be evil, although that is a separate debate in itself.

Edit : Wealthy people / corporations are often guilty of avarice, which is a different condition from greed. Greed involves amassing more wealth; avarice involves holding on to what you have even if you don't need / don't use it.
