- bserge 5y agoThey are the worst pirates I've ever heard of.
- theodric 5y agoIf everything I've paid for and supposedly own some right to access can be taken away from me by a wayward algorithm at a moment's notice with zero recourse, you bet your ass I'm going to "pirate" content, even if I still buy it first!
- jjulius 5y agoWhat a terribly inaccurate, sweeping generalization.
- BHSPitMonkey 5y ago(Pretty sure it was just a joke reference to 'Pirates of the Caribbean'.)
- jjulius 5y agoThis isn't going to be the best response of mine by HN standards, but: Well, fuck me.
- bserge 5y agoAh, but you have heard of them! (gotta do everything myself, but I can go to sleep now :D)
- LivelyTortoise 5y agoIf it makes you feel better, I immediately spoke this line in my head after reading your post :-)
- TeMPOraL 5y agoThis is HN; best jokes are like apples - hard, but not too hard, and in moderation.
- jjulius 5y agoWell, shit, I apologize for calling your comment a "terribly inaccurate, sweeping generalization" (I can't edit my response, the option isn't there). Well done here, I'm the asshole. :)

- N00bN00b 5y ago>They are the worst pirates I've ever heard of. They are. They don't even know how to pirate. The best pirates would never use free open source solutions. They'd just take whatever corporate solution that's the flavor of the day and then use that with anxiety inducing cracks that will give your antivirus a heart attack.
