“Piracy already has a definition, and I don’t have a boat. Now it’s just independent archiving.”
- If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing
Just a PSA: VPN and cover your ass as you pirate.
PSA = Pirate Service Announcement?
Ideally use a VPN with port forwarding (like AirVPN
or Mullvad) so you can properly seed :)Mullvad hasn’t had port forwarding for like a year or more?

Since the publishers are also trying to suppress out-of-print media, abandonware and public domain material (also fair use) and the courts are favoring the publishers over the good of the public, we know it’s no longer about promoting science and useful arts or building a robust public domain.
The companies and courts alike are breaking the social contract, hence the trmporary monopolies enstated by the agencies of the same state are invalid. Piracy is no longer a valid crime since the state licenses are no longer valid.
(They will still enforce the will of the state — ICE does a lot of raids to enforce commercial interests when it’s not massacring refugees— but that doesn’t legitimize the will of the state. It only shows they are willing tyrants glad to use violence to oppress.)
We have nothing to lose but our chains!
“Copyright should protect the artist, not the publisher.”
Steal the album, buy a T-shirt at their concert!
where can i still get the wii u library?
From the official Nintendo server, if you have an app that then removes the protection from the downloaded files.
inb4: The Internet Archive took a dumb decision
yeah we know that they went too much against the powers that be. That was stupid, they could have lived to fight another day, but still, if you’re a pirate you must know their actions were ethically correct.
But what would the Jesus do?
Produce infinite copies of bread loaves, and then get arrested because the baker lobby doesn’t like that.
