Of Piracy

Unsure. To say its only ethical or unethical is incomplete, but I dint know enough to draw any lines.

Interesting question. As someone who does pirate content semi-regularly, it made me grapple. I realize it is not ethical I just also choose not to care.

When people decided it wasn’t worth $20-$30 to go to a movie theater and the solution became charging $20 to watch a movie at home I stopped questioning the consumers’ ethics.

I came here for loot and plunder and we’re talking about downloading things? Shambolic.

If I want to support an artist I will buy their stuff.

@Miller actually hit on it exactly. What kind of piracy? Are we just talking media, or are we broadening the scope to the actual definition of the word? And, to expand on that, *where* are you (as in the person answering the question)... these are factors.

You might consider it not worth it, but that doesn’t make it ethical. We have no right to their work

I support letters of marque!
