@Ertain@mast.linuxgamecast.com @gamingonlinux@mastodon.social If purchasing isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t stealing.

I am ashamed that I hadn’t reasoned this through given all the rubbish digital services have pulled with “purchases” being lies.

    Sony is a dispensible broker/manager who no one likely assigns credit to for a work

    Pedanticism that totally avoids the point. Whether they provide the product or create it, the logic still obviously applies.

    You also seem to be implying they have good metrics on black market activity and useful feedback from that.

    This also defeats the point that it is some duty to pirate it, because if they have no idea the scope then how many people doing it is not going to affect their decisions there either.
