  • If we do not own the games when we purchase them, then piracy is not stealing. Don’t want to give us ownership when we pay for it, okay. Pirate everything. Jailbreak the PlayStation, download the games, and put them on an HDD/SSD, whatever, and play them. That way, you own the game and can play whenever you want.

    That said, I don’t think this sentiment of Sony is new. I think many companies have been doing the “you just get a license but don’t own the thing you purchased” thing for a long time. Sony is just currently the company that is getting the most attention for it.

    It is why I always say, “Get a PC, learn to pirate everything, and purchase the software and games from independent developers (indies).”. That way, you own the software and the games while also supporting the developers that deserve it.

    This way, you don’t have to worry about the whole “you don’t own the product” thing, keep money in your pocket, which is economically wiser in today’s times, and you can support the developers that deserve it.











  • How am I defending someone when I’m pirating it? Money does not flow to the person.

    I’m not defending my position, I’m just surprised on how authoritively the left sudden get while blaming the right for being authoritarian. Especially in a Piracy community, where people pirate and download whatever they want without caring about… authority or opinions most of the time.

    Then people get all squishy, emotionally and insult. Yeah, that will help the statement someone is trying to make.

    Honestly, I don’t even care anymore. I’ll watch what I want to watch. The internet gives me a internet-headache lol. Reddit, Lemmy, whatever platform all the same crap with a different name.

    Want to call me slurs or hateful names? Go ahead, you are a stranger on the internet.
