You’re going to get downvoted because pirates, by and large, feel entitled to other people’s labor for free. I’ve been pirating for two+ decades and I’m fully aware that what I’m doing is wrong. It’d be great if people could stop trying to justify their actions.
Piracy is morally right, we don’t owe them anything.
We see that copyright only matters to them if it is convenient, the latest example is training AI on copyrighted works without licenses. But there are many others.
It is also ironic that copyright was originally created to protect small authors from having a big corporation steal their creation and profit from it. Which is still happening. This is also the reason why originally copyright supposed to last 14 years. Because it was thought that 14 years was long enough time to have monopoly on idea
Only after corporations started bribing politicians they extended it to such ridiculous times and completely changed what copyright really was.

I’ll just go ahead and downvote you and move on. Not really interested in debating this right now.
