Am I taking crazy pills? Thieves are claiming the moral high ground?
It's not theft.
Can you define theft in any way that includes digital copying?
Theft is when capitalists could make more money but didn't
Actually, more accurately: 'Theft' is when capitalists could make more money fucking you over, but couldn't. *Actual *theft is when capitalists make more money by fucking you over and then pay the fines for it as a cost of business.
Wait, you WOULDN'T download a car?
Redefining theft from "taking a physical object that isn't yours" to "right click copy, right click paste" has got to be one of the best psyops of all time.
I was never going to give Todd Howard the money for this regardless, after FO76. He would have received $0 for this game regardless of if I downloaded it or not.
