No, it’s not like stealing a physical item from a store.
“stealing” a digital copy of a movie, tv show or a game is like if the item you’re stealing from a store is infinitely copyable. Like the replicator from star trek…or that one episode of Sabrina the teenage witch with that box that can make a perfect copy of everything you put inside of it.
Of course I personally would never pirate anything, no matter how much streaming services increase their prices or how much they crack down on VPN usage to get around geo-restrictions, PIRACY IS BAD AND ONLY BAD PEOPLE DO IT.
I’ve never pirated anything in my whole life!
There are people who understand what I’m saying…but apparently most people don’t get it.
Of course that means I still would never pirate anything. That would be horrible to “steal” a copy of a movie or a TV show
But of course, piracy is bad. That’s why you shouldn’t ever do it! Why do you think every corporation has to get government handouts from the tax payers? Because we keep stealing from them…I mean…You keep stealing from them. I would never do that and I certainly don’t ever do that. I haven’t paid for any movies in over 10 years, so obviously that means I just don’t watch anything that costs money to see.
I use a privacy friendly VPN that allows P2P because I play games online and no other reason
