@eevee@queer.party I think this is what bothers me about the whole attitude that pirating something from a company you don't like is this act of great moral righteousness, sticking it to the man

it's not actually doing anything to hurt the company unless you tacitly accept the idea that their product is a Must Have and your only agency is whether to pay for it or not. & you're perpetuating the buzz around it either way

you could just not engage with it at all! find something else & elevate that instead!

This is a poor excuse by people who would have pirated said thing anyway, nobody is fooled by their pretence of doing that as a way to punish "bad" companies.
