It's not theft though, never was. Wasn't even a crime until a few years ago.

Well, since Pirates copy rather than take, surely they're creating value everytime they make a copy of something (were you had one, now you have two), unless that something had no value to begin with.
Be a a Pirate: It's good for the Economy!
I pirate because I like it when I have movie and money at the same time
Its not theft its copyright infringement
I'm also a digital theft enjoyer. Unless I have to jump through fucking tons of hoops to watch some movies or tv shows, in those cases I happily pay the streaming service (if it's not in streamio, that is). The waste of time is not worth it, and I care more about convenience.
Thinking of all the shit I buy from the money I did not spent, because I chose to sail the 7 seas instead.
I'm just poor.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
That and of course my friend Baxter here.
I pirate games because the idea of a poor, overworked developer go homeless gets me hard.
I just like training AI.
Kinda. I'm terrified how everyone seems to be in favour of having significantly stricter copyright protections because of scary AI.
