There was no defined topic to begin with. I would say that this thread is generally about stealing, and piracy is truly a part of that.
Lavazza: My thoughts are about the same as yours, thank you for formulating them.
You speak of non-inteference when you say oppose "forcing", which indeed is the very end extreme of STO. But to be purely non-inteferent, would be to end your own life to totally respect and honor all other peoples wishes.
I feel, as long as you think your action benefits the world and humanity as a whole it can be classified as a service to others - this of course sparks the classic dilemmas of:
Kill 1000 to save 1000000. And such.
And I feel strongly that money has only brought us separation, and it's my strongest motivation to why I pirate - to encourage the action of spreading freely, and find solutions that do not require money.
It's a small step, and may indeed not be against all people's wishes, but whatever I do in this world it will be against some people's wishes. Particularly in the time we live in now.
Hello 3D Sunset. Thank you for your concern. As outlined by Ali Quadir, I do not wish to feed the STS companies either. Money is simply not in my interest, and if I shall be classified as stealing while I uphold this ideal of mine, then I will take the consequences. Will I be imprisoned, I will be grateful for this, for it will be a completely new experience and a great catalyst where it will be a challenge to find the love of all.
And thus I am quite self-righteous in this, to the better or worse I do not know. But I feel that it's my only path in this, if I continue to use my computer for enjoyment that is. In a not too distant future, I can see myself growing distant from all this digital communication and entertainment, for I am currently moving in that direction.
