Never. It’s never stealing.
Using that corpo coined verbage is clown to start with. Piracy is a fundumantal online activity and right. It balances out stupid laws.
These clowns think they can use some shit IP laws to stop people from enjoying their own culture haha
Idiots sniffing their lawyers farts should learn how to run a bussiness.
Piracy saves money.
Indeed it can unless you are running a home lab which is never ending spending but at least you own it. Hehe
It may be copyright infringement, but not stealing.
I pirated a certain ‘crash cars and shoot’em up’ game because, even though I own it on Steam, the gameplay (especially the launcher) absolutely sucks.
No more automatically downloading online content when I don’t even play online and no more updates breaking my mods. It’s worked out so well that I’m looking at pirating other games I already own.
Say GTA without saying GTA.
