Transcript? I don't see how it's lying to you unless it's due to stuff like each cracker adding their own stuff, maybe e-coin mining as part of the crack or something like that, but I guess (at least for famous / wanted content) the community would filter those out real fast.

It's about a game company literally called "Pirate Software" which could have been more clear in the title

The video is talking about Thor the developer from Pirate Software.

From the description:

Pirate Software is a game developer and a big streamer. He got a lot of backlash for his wrong opinions on Stop Killing Games. In this video I'll expose why pirate software is lying to you. Penguinz0 and Mutahar shared the same opinion that he didn't understand the movement, I don't share the same sentiment

So I keep seeing this claim

pirate software is lying

But I haven't actually heard a coherent quote where he actually did.
