Why is this news, 99,9% of society says piracy is ok? Has anybody in your life ever reproved you for saying you downloaded a movie, game etc?

Some people say piracy is theft and I'm just like: 🙄

Have you ever been a Minecraft server admin? Have you ever been in a Nintendo fan space? These places really hate pirates

I mean I was a Nintendo fanboy when I was young. I have a switch now and owned N64, GC, Wii. Me and my RL friends lamented not being able to pirate. Sure there are people online that are anti piracy but I think they are actually a vocal minority.

Them and people profiting from copyright are the remaining percentage.
