    Piracy is always stealing. Y’all can keep trying to spin it if it helps, but its pure copium.

        Well first of all, yes it is stealing to take something that does not belong to you. The definition of stealing is not beholden to the consequences of the actions itself.

        Furthermore, if you pirate to avoid paying a subscription, then yes they are losing something. I’m a massive pirate. I steal all my media. I feel no guilt and I also have no delusions about what I am doing. I do it to save money.

          undefined> es it is stealing to take something that does not belong to you

          you are not taking anything . literally nothing.

          im just looking at the thing and making a very good copy with my hard drive. literally taking a picture of something.

          0 objects will be transferred to me in this example. nothing,nada,nulla.

            Yes you are taking something. Of course you are. You are a taking a video file which you do not have the right to. Why do you need to convince yourself there is nothing grimy about doing? Like jesus christ, just be grimey. Wht you gotta lie to yourself?

              no im not. my man you can repeat this all day but it doesnt make it true. you dont TAKE anything through the internet. this is FACT. you cant make up physics…

              you can look at something and make an exact copy of it. no objects get transferred. its not a thing.

      sharing is never stealing since you are not removing anything from somebody :) yall can keep spinning it but a a bag full of all the stuff i shared would be a bag weighing 0 grams.

        And yet you still shared something. Those files exist. This is an extremely weak argument honestly.

          no i havent, i mean you can technically call it sharing but i just let somebody take a look at my 0 and 1 and they arrange them in the same way. again nothing is being transferred other than knowledge of where those 0 and 1 go.

            Something is being tranferred, and that is the picture which you do not own nor have any right to own.
