I take issue with equating the three actions of not viewing ads, piracy and shoplifting although, I am absolutely 100% alright with all three for different reasons. Not viewing ads is a lot more like not looking at billboards on the highway or not reading the inserts you get in your free local newspaper. Pirating movies is a method of showing disdain for extractive and manipulative IP law that lines the pockets of nasty old rich fuds while not paying the actual artists that made a work. I would not pirate an indie film for instance. Stealing from large supermarkets is basically just preventing them from throwing the unsold food away at the end of the profit cycle. Again the only person youre stealing from is the ruling class who profit off of hunger and poverty.
