Look at this hypocrisy.

>If buying isn't owning, pirating isn't stealing.

I bet he is not pirating only what corporations are making him subscribe to use. Also if was that the case, he would still be wrong, because stealing is stealing. Only antichrists would agree with him.

>If buying isn't owning

Buying is owning, so let us start there. If you subscribe for something, you're not buying anything, you're renting.

Learn the difference.

It is impossible to steal something digital because it is non-tangible and infinitely copyable. Nobody is losing the master copy unless you stole it from the physical archives.

>Buying is owning, so let us start there. If you subscribe for something, you're not buying anything, you're renting.

I agree. That is true. The problem is assuming "ownership" needs to exist for digital things to begin with. It doesn't. All software, digital media, etc, is free, all it is is artificial restrictions imposed on it

So your business is a renting service? Cool, i want to play games, where are, locked down but enduser responsibility free "loan for use" game devices already coupled with a full internet stack included with a dedicated isp contract? Because that's the best you can have for proper RENTING regarding digital content, believing you can dissociate the content from the device is asinine since the whole digital information pipeline is built on transfer by DUPLICATION. You corpo cockgarglers are the one supporting piracy, the corporation are the ones enforcing something unworkable offloading the cost of it to the actual consumers that get an inferior experience as result.

I think the point is, you don't really "own" anything digital that's covered by some sort of DRM, which is nearly everything.
You're just buying a license to use the product in a certain way, and a license can be revoked. So you don't own it despite "buying" it.

Renting has nothing to do with it. A subscription makes it very clear you're only paying to access a service for a limited time.

Correct. When you are pirating you are comimtting copyright infringement, which is way worse than stealing.
>>
>>109044752
I hate that retarded "if buying isn't owning" phrase.
Piracy isn't stealing no matter what. There's no correlation there. If there was none of the buying a license bullshit with shitty terms of service around and you could buy ownership of the actual thing at fair conditions, piracy still wouldn't be theft.
>>
piracy does not exist in the computing world. there is only filesharing and whites and kikes simply use the term "piracy" like they use "Narco-Terrorists", to demonize anyone who doesn't conform to their control and rape.

Copyright where you demand money for something is theft. You just let goons (police) and magic spell casters (lawmakers, judges) enforce your theft, but it's still theft.
>>
>>109045021
Not even DRM, when you 'buy' something digital (even without subscriptions) the terms state that you don't actually own a copy of the software, but rather only a license to use the software.

labor *can* have value, which is not the same as "the labor theory of value," and regardless of that, it's stealing either way. If something is mine, you claim it has no value and steal it, that's still stealing. Your value assessment doesn't make it not stealing.

Right after I saw Black Swan, I posted what I thought about the movie in Discord. One of my mates told me about a bunch of fucking retarded weeaboo fucks thought that movie ripped off Perfect Blue. I watched Perfect Blue right after and yeah nah different movie. Black Swan was likely inspired by Perfect Blue, but I wouldn't say it "ripped it off".

There is Wealth Creation and Wealth Destruction. That is all.
Everything else is accounting, capital money supply, debt, product, interest. Most of it is taxonomic wordplay. From the Greek Taxis, and Nomos, or Arrangement of Law/Method/Way of Being.

Platonists argued nomos ought be Universal Standards, logically derived.

What is Wealth, The word derives from, Will, Weal, Wish, literally a water well.
Modern English might be "We All Thirst"

Its opposite is Woe, or the state of being of all. One of its Daughters is World.

The fruit of the tree of knowledge of Good and evil was sometimes transliterated as the fruit of the Tree of weal and woe.

Further, Liberties exist apriori to claims.
