Fuck responsibility. permalink fedilink source parent [–] creature@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago Sure, that works too. I could think of of plenty examples, but a good use for pirating would be Disco Elysium - the publishers stole the IP of the creators unjustly, so it would be cobsidered by many ethical to not purchase the game and instead pirate it and donate a comfortable amount to the actual creators patreons. You are actuallu combating theft, in this instance. But of course it would not be responsible to pirate most indie games permalink fedilink source parent [–] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 3 points 7 months ago (1 child) Putting aside the massive ethical and legal implications of blatantly exploiting human culture and works in the name of corporate profits...
