how is this acknowledging piracy ?

I guess they don't realize GOG is DRM free as part of their business model?

Probably because they think DRM=anti pirate and not "You don't actually own this"

Selling only DRM-free games has always be GOG's whole thing (well, that and selling oldies compatible with modern OS), it's weird that this meme specifically would be considered "aknowledging piracy"

Like, maybe if the final bit was saying the friends without accounts did like it there might be something there, but simply acknowledging DRM free I'm not seeing it
