"Does that mean you can steal a rental car?"

Bro, I don't know where you got that from. This is about digital entertainment and ownership.

@gamesbymanuel I think the appropriate analogy would be borrowing a rental car without paying, or jumping a transit turnstile, which I wholeheartedly support.

@antifawarlord @gamesbymanuel But why? By taking the rental car, wouldn’t you agree to pay at SOME point?

@bruhwhy677 @gamesbymanuel Not sure I follow. My point is pirating a movie doesn't deprive anyone else of that movie so it's more comparable to evading a train fare instead of taking a physical object. Pirating movies never made me agree to pay at some point, neither has evading train fares. Both of these are examples of not paying for something where nothing was taken from anybody else. A car is perhaps a poor example because for the duration of use it's unavailable.

@gamesbymanuel Why do I only see 2,9K and 1,1K like on my side?

@ridou I don't know. Are you sure you're looking at the right post? This is what it looks like for me on browser.
