Right only I program tangible chips which serve a purpose, and you cannot just take them. Or maybe you fork the open source repos? You're welcome? Like I said,

Like I said, I'm not paying for bla bla entertainment. Whether that means I read a free news site instead, or I circumvent your paywall, it's the same to you because I'm not paying. That's the same reason piracy doesn't cost publishers anything, most people weren't in commerce in the first place.

There's a subset of users who are able to pay, and were willing to pay, but chose to not pay because the piracy option was available and convenient. If piracy doesn't cost anyone anything, then lets scale the experiment up; lets say piracy is absolutely unpunished and totally legal. That means netflix clones spawn up, Steam clone clients are released, and all content is extremely convenient and accessible for free. What happens to those companies/industries?
- Bancakes 5y agoPeople keep paying for Spotify premium and YouTube red. Nothing detrimental in my POV.
- scottiebarnes 5y agoPaying for services isn't piracy...so what are you trying to say exactly?
- Bancakes 5y agoPeople still pay on free platforms.
- scottiebarnes 5y agoYeah that's not piracy then is it
