        also everyone on brics LOVES PIRATING STUFF, like in general if your country is poor or developing you are probably okay with it, like brazil will pretend they are not and do the lip service and say it is a crime TO SELL THEM but you can own it and no one can do anything about it unless you are caught selling it
