With that attitude I hope somebody steals your TV and computer because they don't want to pay for one. There is a massive difference between pirating from HBO or from LTT. It's the difference between stealing from Walmart or stealing from an old lady's bakery. You're a shit person.
Besides money you mean.
I don't mind shorting a predatory carrier or production studio, but I don't care to short the people who make content I want: if they don't make money they don't make content and we don't get to consume it.
Nope. They have exactly as much money as they had before I pirated their shit. It's a false assumption if you assume that people would purchase everything they pirate, and not just do something else free
It's the same as sneaking into a show for your favorite small band. Your lack of paying for a ticket isn't depriving someone of a product, but you're a dick for not supporting them. The difference is that the actors and writers of movies and TV shows get paid the same whether or not you pirate. Someone smaller like LTT should be supported if you can afford to do so. Piracy is about freedom of information, unrestricted media, convenience, and not supporting big bad companies. If you think it's just about free stuff then you're more dimwitted than ever. Of course I like free, but that's not the point.
Who put you in charge of diving out some grand meaning of piracy? I've encountered plenty of people for whom a major aspect of piracy is that it's a way to access content they would otherwise be uninterested in paying for, for whatever reasons they have. Who's to say they're wrong for wanting free content?
Piracy doesn't deprive anyone of goods.
It does when they can't keep running the service anymore because your broke asses won't support it.

lmao please
