I was raised on pirated copies of PS1 games and taught about torrents/P2P by my mother. I’ve been immersed in piracy since I was a child, It’s just normal to me. Never needed to make myself feel bad about it. if anything, once I got older and learned more about how the modern world works, I started to feel righteous about my actions.


Are they basically ConcernedApe?

Literally the main person in mind when I was writing that last sentence 😂😂 he can have my money.

Edit: I pirated stardew initially, then bought three copies over the years on different platforms, either for myself or as gifts for friends.


Setting legality aside, what ‘level of piracy’ is morally or ethically acceptable to you?

All levels. I think that human beings are morally and ethically obligated to do anything that causes a corporation to lose or miss out on profits. They exploit and disrespect our power as consumers by changing EULA after we purchase products, I see no reason not to rob these mfs blind.

If it’s an indie game I’ll pay for it after pirating, if I enjoy the game.


Money. Greed. Enshittification. Capitalism.
