if software isnt property stealing isnt theft.
Also fuck your dumb bot how many times are you going to make this shit thread.

Ah yes, the classic non-sequitur
If all car manufacturers decided that, instead of selling cars, they loaned the cars to you instead, would taking their car without their permission and not paying them for it constitute theft?

>>509050381 (OP)
Yes but it is unfathomably based because there is literally nothing they can do about it and it makes them eternally seethe

If we're into phantasy.

There's a fine line between intelectual property and trying to establish a monopoly through fake dependency on a product.
Such behavior is illegal in the very spirit of the law.

>>509051355
A distinction without a difference
You are still taking something of theirs without their permission and without compensation.
That's theft, plain and simple.

Hell ya brother. Giving lots of money to Jews to watch the latest goyslop is proper white man behavior.

asmongold went viral with a video defending piracy so jews unleashed the kike bots to counter signal as expected

once you start seeing these patterns there's really no going back. the board is just ruined for you

>>509050457
thats why its still only frowned upon to download here

>>509051483
not if you try to establish a monopoly and a fake dependency with software as a service.
Then piracy becomes an obligation you may convince the legal system to be on your side, but the spirit of the law beats the letter of the law.

Basically if we fast forward the parameters of the problem your jewishness presents you always lose.

>>If all car manufacturers decided that, instead of selling individual cars, they cloned them and sold copies to you instead, would MAKING a copy of their car without their permission and not paying them for it constitute theft?
"Piracy" in this context is a violation of intellectual property rights, not theft. Theft involves taking something from someone, who then no longer has it.

>>509050381 (OP)

Well you wouldnt download a car.

>>509051738
No because, per steam's terms and conditions, you agree that they have the right to revoke your license to that content at any time for any reason. You never owned it to begin with. You purchased a revocable license.

>>509050381 (OP)
its white behavior
vikings were the greatest pirates
the most infamous carribean pirates were french and british

>>509051483
>You are still taking something of theirs
No, they still have the originals, you just have a copy.

>>509051761
Theft is not contingent on whether they lose something. It's simply taking something they own without their permission.

>>509050381 (OP)
Not when retailers are jews or racketeering on prices. It's a corrective process to guardrail them from fucking over the consumer.

>>509051753
then we agree to disagree.
We're going to vote people into power that are on our side and we'll make your jewish tricks illegal while you kvetch.

If there are none and the situation becomes bad enough men will break the social contract (imagine the worse).
... you always lose dumbfuck, this is what you jews dont understand, you're on borrowed time.

>>509051918
Theft is not contingent on whether or not you like their business practices. It's still theft and therefore nigger behavior

>>509050381 (OP)
After napster shut down, I never gave a single dollar to the MPAA or the RIAA again. I pirated and seeded so hard you could call me captain ejaculation. I only stopped when I gave up computers.. cleaning rootkits became too scary and hard to detect.. phone is enough interaction with retards for me

>>509051823
That. If I never truly own it, how is piracy a crime anymore?

No. Next thread.

>>509052014
Because they own it, and you are taking it without their permission.

>>509050381 (OP)
No, copyright is a kike invention. Books, movies, games etc can be shared or copied so there’s no reason not to pirate. I use zlibrary and ready so much more now because of it. If anything it sells more books, because usually if I like a book I buy a physical copy to add to my library.

>>509051914
>It's simply taking something they own
This involves loss. The item in question is no longer in their possession. Piracy is a violation of copyright (which concerns how copies of intellectual property are to be handled), not theft.

>>509051823
Ok so according to my terms and conditions they don't own anything and I can acquire whatever I want at my leisure

>>509050851
Yes.

>>509051823
Steam is a totally different thing than the software as a service you're trying to advocate.
Steam is a distributer platform and a very ethical company.

>>509052086
If they agree to it.

>>509051823
but i thought it was the same as stealing a car? i purchase a car outright the dealer can't come back a year later and repo it because he doesn't like the way i drive. so it seems software IS different

>>509052071
It doesn't involve loss. If someone takes something of yours, uses it, and returns it, you have not lost something, yet they still stole it.

>>509052023
Ok, im wrong.

>>509050381 (OP)
it's not nigger behavior when the companies are engaging in like shenanigans


>you VVILL pay and own nothing
of there's nothing to own there's nothing to steal, whomp whomp

>>509052141
Their agreement isn't required, I get what I want and they don't because fuck them. I declare I rightfully own everything they think belongs to them.

>>509052164
>If someone takes something of yours
There's the loss. See it?

>>509052150
If the car is being leased to you, and you agreed that they could revoke that license for any reason, then yes they could do that.

>>509051611
heck in the end it's gonna be FOSS or it's gonna be "the garden" not everybody is meant to live in the garden that's why it's walled

so in the end it's up to pirates to make THEIR shit important or interesting
anybody can draw a fake louis buitton logo, but it's not ORIGINAL, so it's pirated

>>509052017
yes, anon, anyone can search images on archive for plebs.

Is this new to your unwashed moldovan ass ? Did you take your weekly shower ?

>>509052206
Then no, that has no legal validity, and is not comparable to a service agreement.

Someone created the content that you would pirate, and they are not getting the profits they should make from their efforts.

I don't care about arguments saying it doesn't matter, like "I wouldn't buy it if I had to pay for it, so they wouldn't make profits from me anyway". It's still unethical to steal something. You're still taking advantage of someone's work.

The same thing goes for making a copy from someone who paid for the work. Maybe your friend paid for a movie. It's ok to watch it with them, but not ok to make a copy of your own

>>509052213
No, because they returned it. You didn't lose anything.

You could make this same argument for physical theft as well.

>>509052285
That does not retroactively erase the theft from history. It happened. What happens after that does not change that it happened. There is no loss (at all) in making unauthorized copies. The owner of the intellectual property was not deprived of anything. Very different situations.

>>509052285
so then you didn't have it stolen?

It’s as ethical as borrowing a book from a library. More ethical even, as no tax payer has to maintain some blue hair groomer employee to keep it operating. Sharing is caring.

>>509052447
Yes, exactly. That's because theft is not contingent on whether or not you lose the item. They stole it, it doesn't matter whether they returned it or that it was never gone to begin with. It's theft because they took it without permission of the owner.

Piracy is the nigger solution to the Jewish Question.

>>509052594
niggers aren't smart enough to figure that out, it's only whites who pirate

Somebody took a picture of my work after I finished a construction project. Am I the victim of theft??? I never consented to having copies of my work made.

>>509052003
yessss I bought like 300 cd's I had downloaded from napster
I used them for finding interesting new media and artists
when they killed it, I vowed to never buy from them fuckers ever again
and have held it up to this day
I have never again bought a song, a movie, a dvd, I got rid of my television and dvd player and cd player, never bought a gaystation, or a new nintendo console, or a game, or anything

it's just "i had this idea, don't copy it", sowwy babby, but internal combustion engines are a good idea I'll make my own

Yes. Because when you would like to purchase something, you BUY IT WITH MONEY, not STEAL IT FROM A RUSSIAN PIRATE WEBSIGHT

riddle me this:
if you have a bicycle in your garage, and one morning you walk in and notice the bicycle is gone... How does that make you feel?
You're upset, so you go on a walk to clear your head. While on your little stroll, you notice someone zip past you on a bicycle. It's you're bicycle.
So you sprint and catch up to the culprit, and call the police.
When the police arrive, the criminal says "I did not steal this bike, I merely pirated it"

The cops would laugh all the way back to the jail, with the criminal in the back seat of their paddywagon.

Piracy is theft. It is no different from going to a store and stealing sunscreen or toothpaste.

But then again, you retards will probably argue
>"OH, you don't actually *own* the tooth paste, because as you use it... it starts to disappear"
retards.

>>509052542
>theft is not contingent on whether or not you lose the item.
theft
noun
the act of stealing; the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods or property of another; larceny.
No loss of an item, no theft. Other crimes may be involved (violation of intellectual property rights, for example), but if someone is not illegally deprived of something, theft has not occurred.

>They stole it, it doesn't matter whether they returned it or that it was never gone to begin with.
In the case of taking a physical object without permission, yes. But in the case of digital piracy, nothing has been taken. There have simply been additional (unauthorized) copies made of some proprietary media.

>>509052822
Correct. If you managed to be in the vicinity of the musical group recording a new song, and you recorded it, that would also not constitute theft.

>>509052895
he is very jewish.
I told him "we agree to disagree" and goes on to tell me "im wrong"... like ok nigger, im wrong.

Piracy stays, jews gonna kvetch.

>>509050381 (OP)
I'd say, pirating anything produced in the last 20 years is questionable. We need to support artists and producers. Beyond that? paying an eternal legacy tax for digital recordings? I think it's piracy to pay for the movie / software

Stealing from jews is like saving a drowning baby.

also if you buy a physical copy of something like a movie or book, but you want a digitized copy for convenience and the only option is on pirate bay, to me that is also ethical, even if it was produced yesterday.

>>509052232
I do not agree

This would appear to be in compliance with the terms of the lease, supposing that the original car is returned.

>>509053179
saas is the most illegal shit ever, they try to establish a monopoly.
OP is so wrong and tried to use STEAM (a distributor) to enforce his position. Steam does not produce any software and just stores all the shitty game devs products in a place... they are a blessing.

So, if someone kidnapped you, cloned you, and sent your clone into the world to replace you... would it be kidnapping?
Because you are locked up in a basement, next to a big vat full of boiling indian people. Your clone, on the other hand, is living your life.

If ya don't like it, well you're still in the basement.
Ohhh ya can't get out, that's YOUR problem not mine faggot
Try to escape and tell everyone what happened, they'd all think you're a schizophrenic lunatic. Your clone will be the voice of reason in this scenario.

>>509053273
>No, because they own that movie.
and they still have it

Depends.
I have pirated games and then bought them afterwards because I really liked them and wanted to support the developer.
Some other games have a completely abusive and predatory business model like for example civ 7 just came out recently with a full price of 70$ or something then they released a DLC 1 week after release for another 30$. What kind of retarded shit is that? In situations where the model is predatory I think it's morally good to pirate. There are games out there like stellaris that with all the dlcs cost like 300$. You have the be the world's biggest chump to pay that kind of money for a game.

>They can no longer claim that it is the original painting
Yes, they can. They have a secure chain of custody. The original has been under constant surveillance since before you were born. No one would be fooled if you tried to sell the copy as the original.

And it's still not theft because nothing has been taken.

>>509054084

>>509053658
>next time the train wont have funds to fuel the ride
trains don't use fuel, retard. they get their power from the tracks.

that's how you know our world has no intention of making progress. In a real 21st century world, we would have roads that provide power to the cars.
Instead, no. We use gasoline, which is like earth piracy.
We're taking energy from earth (fuel, oil) and turning that energy into something that powers our cars and electric tea kettle.

Disgusting. End piracy, and End earth piracy!

You can, of course, propose your own scenarios, but in the original scenario, there was a lease agreement for a particular car owned by some entity.

>>509054179
Chain of custody means nothing, they have no way of proving that it is still the original (i.e. if you swapped it or not)

Hear ye mateys, this is what a shill be like! Spineless and simping for large corporations that seek to monopolize your entertainment and art. Shills should be hanged, drawn and quartered on sight like the filthy landlubbers they are.
Movies and games are art, they should be available for free to everyone, that way the awful ones would be filtered out immediately by the crowd and the worthy ones would be supported through willing donations (as many indie games get supported by the way) Piracy is theft yes. But it's also the only valid answer to a corporate-run environment that tries to turn "art" into their cashcow.
TLDR:
Fuck you and fuck the jewish megacorps you're shilling for. I only pay for indie games and only AFTER I played through them.

They're forcing people to pirate. How many fucking streaming services do they expect us to sign up for?

Like, imagine you had to become a Club Member for 10 different grocery store chains because they all sold completely different food. Want butter? That's only at Alfonson's! Want hamburger? That's only at Meat Field! Want tomatoes? You can find those at Green & Lean! It's fucking ridiculous. And most of these places force you to subscribe. You can't just buy a month, or a year subscription. You have to subscribe for life - and a lot of them make you jump through hoops to unsubscribe. A lot of people actually cancel their credit cards to start fresh so they don't have to cancel 10 subscriptions over the phone.

trying to establish a monopoly through ANY means is illegal (SaaS is a way to establish it).

Do you not know what that is or why people care about it in all sorts of contexts?

>they have no way of proving that it is still the original (i.e. if you swapped it or not)
The constant security video going back decades shows that you did not. Again, the original painting is still there. Making a copy of it does not constitute theft. If the painting is old, it's in the public domain, and you would legally be entirely in the clear to mass produce and sell copies of it.

>>509054420
Like I said, it's basically piracy. You're pirating the fuel from the earth to turn it into electricity.

But of course, if I plug an extension cable into my neighbors house it's considered stealing, when the fuel for that electricity was stolen (aka pirated) in the first place.

>>509054426
They're boiled, which means they're more like soup at this point.
What I'm saying is that. You weren't kidnapped, because your clone is living your life.
You, the one who was cloned, is locked up inside a basement. So that you was kidnapped, but everyone else assumes it's just you (it is the clone)

So in this case, there would be no crime because how could you argue that you were kidnapped for 14 months, when you showed up to work every day, made out with your girlfriend every night, and even managed to get the new high score in your favorite video game?

Any piece of media under IP protection is inherently monopolistic and therefore is anti-free market. Piracy fixes this by starving the system of cash. Therefore, it's your moral obligation to pirate

>>509054632

Incorrect. Utilities are usually legal monopolies that are subject to strict regulation.

Mining is not piracy, and neither are theft.

>>509054691
>if I plug an extension cable into my neighbors house it's considered stealing
If you use their electricity (they they pay for) without authorization, yes. It's theft of money via fraud, since to the electrical company, you are using your neighbor's account

Is this "deserving it" determined by some legal process?

>>509050381 (OP)

Depends what you are pirating. Text books are overpriced, movies, music, etc (if mainstream) are distributed by Jews, so based to steal from them.

What you shouldn't do is pirate from a mom & pop / independent label.

The scenario involved stealing from your neighbor. Stealing from the electrical company would be something like installing your own unmetered transmission line tap. But yes, both those things are illegal.

>but stealing from the movies is not a crime?
"Stealing" would obviously be a crime, but violation of intellectual property rights is not stealing. Violation of intellectual property rights is a crime, however. Where are you going here?

copying is not theft.
when you steal there's one thing less.
but, copying makes more.
>b b but, my money!
you are not entitled to my money.
if you have the software you started with, and don't know any different after i make a copy, then you have no reason to complain.
me, using my hardware and software to make a copy has nothing to do with you.
it's like taking a picture of the eifle tower.
i used my own hardware and software to make a copy of the original and doing it didn't hurt anyone or deprive anyone of anything.
again, i must emphasize that you are not entitled to my money for me using my hardware and software however i please--including copying your software.

no, you were never entitled to my money.

>Someone else claimed that because it's a flashdrive, you're not actually carrying the data.
>Someone else
again, that person is bad at arguing...
> It's absolutely an apt analogy, you're just a faggot.
you haven't even addressed any of my arguments, lol.
so, how many of the transistors in their flashdrive do you own, anon?

>>509060370
What does that have to do with being able to hold data in your hand?

Are you pretending to be dumb?

Strongest pirates in the early modern era were british, dutch and tuscans. Coincidentally, they were all also very good at loan and banks

>>509060422
Yes I do, I watched Chernobyl on HBO. It works by taking the radiation bullets and compressing them to the point that they pierce through an atom, which in term causes energy which powers your microwave, which is also using radiation, to cook your food.

Thats why nuclear is not piracy, but hydro, wind, gas, and solar power are piracy.

>>509060641
>you are not entitled to money when i place hardware that i own in configurations that you figured out first.
What's the logic behind the argument? It just seems like an assertion that piracy is ok without any engagement with the arguments for why it's wrong actually.
>also, copying is not theft.
True in the strict sense in as much as the person you're copying from doesn't lose the original. However, it might as well be called that given the societal and economic impact.

>>509060719
The implication is that you are not allowed to flick your own switches. You can only pay a guy to flick them for you.

yes

no, completely different. you're literally depriving them of something with ransomware--it's right in the name

in a logically consistent way, CP is illegal because it depicts minors in sexual acts, not because it's on a computer. CP can also be photographs. this is just more muddying the waters.

it's not a bad argument, you just don't like it.

Correct.
They are free to not digitize things and then I can’t download them.

>It works by taking the radiation bullets and compressing them to the point that they pierce through an atom, which in term causes energy which powers your microwave.

A nuclear power plant uses the heat generated from nuclear fission to produce steam, which then spins a turbine (that needs regular oil changes) to generate electricity.

>>509060544
>You didn't design the configuration of those bits yourself.
so? you don't own my hardware. you don't get to forbid me from particular configurations of my hardware.
>Rather, you made use of the work of others, and copied that pattern to your hardware.
and? there's nothing wrong with standing on the shoulders of giants, is there?
doing so certainly doesn't entitle them to my money.

for. the last time. I'm discussing NUCLEAR power.

you're trying to change the subject to steam engines. We're not talking about trains, ffs

>>509060791

the logic is simple: i own the bits. you don't get to hold certain configurations hostage because you don't own them.

Not only, some make threads defending the corpofaggot practices as if the world and the people in it are subject to their kikepitalists practices.

>>509061381
You don't own the configuration of the bits. The configuration of the bits is an achievement created by someone else, which you copied.
It's the same retarded argument as "my body my choice". Just because it's your body doesn't mean you can do whatever you want with it, when it impedes on others' rights.

So would this apply to neurons as well faggot? I now own your mind because the pattern of "switches" in your head are apparently owned by me.

then you should have no problem not viewing content that isnt yours

>>509062037
Thanks for admitting you're wrong

>>509061732
Actually I just randomized the bits for some time and the output was GTA V: Vice City. And you can’t prove that didn’t happen.

>>509062096
You just got owned retard. You are equating your "intellectual property" with somebody remembering the information in a book faggot.

>>509061936
abstraction?
you're the retards that had to call making a copy "piracy" you daft twat!
making an argument regarding the physical state of property isn't abstraction--it's as low-level as it gets.
the irony is that the source code that you are so strongly advocating for is itself an abstraction of the instructions that a processor would run.
holy shit your ignorance astounding.

>>509061870
Can anyone debunk this? No?

Listening to the fitgirl installer music as I read the thread.

>>509062197
oh, i like your street performer analogy.
i'm going to think about it, refine it, and use it in future arguments.
thank you, anon!

>>509050381 (OP)
If the act of buying doesn't grant ownership to a thing, the act of pirating isn't stealing. Thus, not nigger behavior.
Any attempt to compare piracy to theft inherently falls flat due to software not being a physical thing that you "own". As a funny side note, picrel ironically uses a pirated font.
Anti-piracy laws are a relic of the past from back when the entertainment industry had to grapple with the idea that digital media are susceptible to copying.
No one even has an idea how much damage "piracy" causes, thus all the figures you see are guesstimates at best. You can't know whether someone who pirated your software hasn't also bought it, as is often the case with entertainment media. The formula for damage has been and will always be "1 download = 1 unit of damage" which is way too simple.
There is no claim against piracy that doesn't rely on guesswork, slippery slope fallacies and misplaced appeals to morality.
Unless you generate revenue from offering pirated content and thus compete with the original creators of said content, you are commiting a victimless crime. Download what you want when you want and support who you want to support.
If AI can just take stuff, then you can too.

>>509062190
No, you're just retarded and can't understand a basic argument
Abstractionizing it into "bits and bytes" does not make it not theft you fucking retard.
>>509062197
Not remotely comparable
>>509062220
If you created it, it is yours
If you purchased it, it is yours
If you purchased a license to view it, it is not yours
If you did not create it, did not purchase it, and do not have permission to use it, then it is theft.
>>509062263
That's not an abstraction. You are brown.

>>509062384
I purchased my computer. QED.

>>509062384
it's abstraction in the literal sense.
you are thinking of OOP "abstraction" which is also abstraction.
context is important.

One's silicon, another is cells but in the end it's still just flicking switches.

anyone paying for media via the internet is a nigger faggot that should have its internet usage removed. from the late 90s til hell about 2010ish , piracy was the ONLY way. they didnt even sell digital slop. napster,kazaa,ares,limewire. If you aint stealing media, you dont belong on the internet.

there used to be 0 censorship on the internet, you could type nigger anwhere. I remember calling people niggers on the VN boards ( old ass gaming forums) in the early 2000s.

fucking wild how corporate and zogged the internet has become over time.

It sort of is like, if your old enough to remember. Once upon a time you could take a drive and not worry about anything if there was no visible cops. now we got cameras watching 24//7 and you always lookin over your shoulder cant enjoy the freedom of driving you once had. Internet gone same way.

the pen clearly doesnt work. if we want change its gonna be violent, and the overlords also are frothing for that.

did making a copy deprive them of access or use of their software?

>>509063307
Yes, that is intellectual property theft

>>509061518
>>509061754
Well, if the giants can't charge to hold people on their shoulders any more, do you think as many will do it? It's beneficial to society to promote the development of intellectual property like creative works (covered by copyright) and technical knowledge (covered by patents). The details of how that works are obviously negotiable, but the principle underlies a lot of the nice things we have today, including nearly all the targets of digital piracy.
