- krapp 10y agoWhat if the vast majority of copyright infringement and distribution has nothing at all to do with trying to change "corrupt, unfair or antiquated" laws, and everything to do with simply getting free access to content you would otherwise be required to pay for? I mean, I'm all for copyright reform but let's not pretend there's a real civil disobedience movement at work wrt software piracy. It's a post-hoc justification at best.
