But the thing they are selling to you is not only the data. Also the right to use it. When a studio makes a game spending millions of dollars they don’t do it so one can buy it for 60$ and others can copy from him/her eh? Try moralizing it as much as you want. (If your being sarcastic sorry about that but doesn’t look like it) Privacy Piracy is stealing, and I am accepting I am stealing. No need to think otherwise.
Sharing pirated content to millions of people is stealing, I agree. But it started differently. You bought the CD and you could lend it to friend, your game worked. Right now you buy games and only you can play it. Which is different with any other form of physical good. I buy a car I can let someone drive it for a day. Why shouldn’t this apply to digital goods as well?
That’s how piracy started, because we couldn’t share our goods with friends anymore. Digital companies decided it’s loss for them.

Yeah absolutely. Which is something I am completely agreeing of. But the thing is that doesn’t give us the right to steal it or make ourselves think it is not stealing. What I am doing is not buying such companies’ products + pirating if I really need it. But I don’t try to make it seem like how it is not (e.g. as it is not stealing).

I am pretty sure when Napster was a thing music CDs were still a thing as they are now too.
No, because you’re still tampering with the original product. That is not analogous to piracy. If you make a perfect 1:1 replica of my toothbrush, and use that to pleasure yourself, I don’t care, because my toothbrush is still in my bathroom untouched.
Piracy is always justified. I don’t do it because I’m afraid of consequences and my fear of fucking up is greater than my desire to watch TV, but if you’re confident in your abilities, do it. Fuck Netflix, they wouldn’t use your money to make shows you like anyway.

So if I use your toothbrush to clean my asshole it’s fine cuz it’s still there right?
If you can exactly copy said toothbrush and then clean your filthy bunghole with the copy it is totally fine, yeah.

I don’t know about you guys, but I share my digital games all the time. Steam and Switch have pretty decent share setups.
Didn’t really think this one through.
Sure. I can even spit extra on it no charge if that makes your day. Just download me a clean one afterwards will you.
