AVAST, ME MATEYS! There’s booty to be had!
I just like stealing from corporations I don’t need a reason
If they still have it after you take it, you didn’t steal anything.
Also Disney specifically, for having for decades bought politicians to get Copyright extended progressively from the original 25 years to the present day Death Of Author + 75 years (in practice that’s around 125 years in average), has taken more from the Public Domain (which is were works end after Copyright is over) which is owned by all of us, than anybody could possibly “take” from them by refraining to obey the copyrights of their works and just copying their shit without paying them.
It’s a fucking Moral Duty to not obey Copyright Legislation when it comes to the likes of Disney.
That’s why I steal physical goods from stores as well as seeding torrents. Been uploading around 25TB a year for the past 5 years. And I’m super clumsy when using self checkout at stores and often forget to scan some of the more expensive items I’m buying. Ooopsy
*There is no ethical consumption under whatever you wanna call the current mode of production
I hate this response, as it implies all choices are equivalent.
If I know a product is made with literal child slavery, it is still more ethical to avoid than product than to spout that platitude
I think a better one is “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”
Make the choices that are within your remit to control but cut yourself some slack for not being able to entirely subvert the current world order as one person. We need to be better organised for that.
And, like you said, don’t buy products made with child slavery.
When I see a call to boycott some company almost every time I’m already not buying it.
fr having jellyfin for music and also shows and just pirating them is great :)
Sucks that like 90% of the anglosphere internet are hosted on amazon servers
However, if you’d still like your entertainment… Arrr me hearties…
