I’d post what Rav Moshe said about people translating his Teshuvos without his permission and why he felt that way, but ironically I would be over a Psak of Rav Moshe.
Did he mean an absolute ban on translating any portion of it? Or did he mean *publishing* a translation?
I doubt he meant the former (which is what the OP did). If so, then I could never learn his sefer with my son, since he does not have the requisite Hebrew skills yet — and I would have to translate some of the passages for him as we learned it inside.
Do you really think that’s what he meant?
And, if so, does a person have the *right* to ban anyone from translating their works that they put out in the public domain*? I don’t think they do.
