Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Filesharing isn't piracy. It's filesharing.

Piracy is when you attack a ship and steal its cargo.

But, of course, it was difficult for the RIAA to have a war on sharing, so they had to use a different term with sinister connotations and implant it into the public consciousness.

And it worked! You never hear anybody talk about "filesharing" anymore.

These days (at least in my country) I can't own movies, games and watch or play them at my will

Companies like Netflix, Amazon are lending movies but not making them free for you. And then they wonder why piracy is rising

Tbh for a student like me, piracy is the only option. If buying isn't owning then piracy isn't stealing

The only damage that exists from piracy is to the copyright holders profits.....

Since the copyright holder is usually a corporation that is owned by shareholders, the majority of which are richer than all of us combined, ask me if I give a shit and I will show you my field of shits to give, and you will see that it is barren.

Eat the rich. Or Luigi them... I don't care.

I just got reminded of that sick anti piracy ad that would play before every film back in the 2000s lol

I don't even call it piracy, because piracy has a definition that this doesn't meet. I call it what it is: unauthorized reproduction. That's it. That's all "piracy" is, it's literally just unauthorized reproduction. Doesn't sound nearly as scary and dramatic when you call it what it actual is, does it?
