Piracy is a clear and self-evident moral good irrespective of how close or not it is to stealing. Justifying piracy based on wordplay opens you up to attack by people and organizations that like to destroy what is good through manipulative wordplay.
- madsbuch 3y agoWhile this is true, it is also true that the counter-party, the ones who sell games, use an equivalent wordplay, "buy", "own" to cause moral havoc. There is this thing called civil disobedience as a tool to keep fairness in check. This might a justification of piracy.
