    yeha, piracy isn’t about buying things. You keep bringing up that ultra specific scenario, again using a specific scenario to defend something more general. Do you think piracy is about buying things and then sharing? No. It is about buying something once and distributing it massively to millions of people. And for some it is about just downloading something for free, even if they don’t know who shared it with them.

    How much people have a home server that costs thousands of dollars with tens of terabytes to download all the movies they want and then sell a subscription to their NAS, or just share that for free to people who can totally afford paying for a streaming service.
