Literally no one thinks that. But you know that already, don't you?
It's theft of intellectual property...
There is no such thing as intellectual property - you can not own a thought.
Once again with the strawman.
Intellectual property is not a thought that you own. It's an idea or digital creation. Something that actually takes time to make, often a whole lot of time. Something you never would have dedicated as much time to if you couldn't be compensated for it.
I love how you guys play these mental gymnastics to justify this shit to yourselves.
I love how you bootlickers always deny that anyone could possibly have a principled objection to modern intellectual property laws. I don't need to "justify" at all. I rarely even pirate anything, but I don't believe I'm doing anything wrong when I do.
Wow look that's 3 strawman in a row, you guys are exceptional at fabricating fictional arguments to tear down.
If you're going to use that word you should at least know what it means so you don't sound stupid.
