Look guys, you don't need to justify your piracy. There is nothing ethically wrong with pirating media.
Anticonsumer practices are justification enough. If someone has a childish response of "uR sTeaLiNg!!", give them an equally childish retort and tell them to eat your farts.
I’d argue that indeed we do as a community need to justify our actions. Mainstream knowledge and media label us as close to thieves and criminals. People need to realize we just want to share bits and bytes across the internet, and we are stewards of media preservation and freedom of information. As cracking down piracy become normalized, it’s even more important to have a voice in society, and reassure people that what we’re doing is morally grounded

I pirate because I like pissing off billion dollar conglomerates.
We are not the same.
