Yet another example that piracy is not just a superior product or about not paying for content, but is an absolute core need.

- cultureswitch 4y agoIn the face of senseless copyright law, avoiding to fund the organizations responsible is a moral imperative, and piracy is typically the way to do that.
- Zuiii 4y ago> avoiding to fund the organizations responsible is a moral imperative I never thought about it that way. I avoided getty and other stock media publishers out of principle. In their deranged quest to subjugate google, they made image search worse for me. I think it's about time I started applying this logic to other publishers as well. Copyright is completely out of control. There has to be accountability, even if it's insignificant and only on a personal level. For any authors reading this: I intend to continue paying for books and will gladly do so but only if it's to you directly. Either self-publish or put a donation link on your site. If I'm interested in your book, I will search for your personal website prior to taking any action. It's sad that it has to come down to this.
