Piracy is stealing.
Usage of proprietary media can atmost be renting.
Only free and open source is true ownership.

@dinodroid @gamesbymanuel If I watch a movie without paying for it, once or 1000 times, there's no harm done. Nobody lost anything.

@ScarbirGaming @dinodroid @gamesbymanuel That's just POTENTIAL income. They make millions, if not billions from every movie anyways, so piracy doesn't matter. There's no real harm done. It's very different than a car theft. If you steal a car, they won't sell it and they lose money, but if you "steal" a movie, they will sell it anyways. I wouldn't buy a movie anyways, so there's even none "customer" lost...

@dinodroid
Piracy is certainly copyright infringement, but while the media companies routinely brand it as theft, legislatures and courts would disagree.
