Piracy is a just reaction to an unjust informational system

@Fayedray @jonny sea faring was just the architecture of the information and value exchange infrastructure of the time / development stage of civilization.

There was also the story of a medieval french light-fire "morse" network that was "hacked"/hijacked by industrious merchants that encoded secret messages about price changes in local "stock exchanges" to game the markets.

And robberies along the silk route...

@MartinTilo @Fayedray @jonny It was actually a semaphore system (large mechanical arms visible at a distance).

@jonny re: "piracy"... what can't be owned by being purchased can't be stolen by being copied.

@jonny the theft of non-scarce resources is a good and natural reaction to the hoarding of those resources, as the hoarding is inherently immoral and unnecessary for resources that are not scarce.
