Piracy, in today’s context of unauthorized sharing of digital content, is wrongly condemned as immoral theft. However, it is not piracy itself that is immoral.

At its core, piracy is about sharing information and creative works with others, which should be seen as a moral good. 🤑

Tthose big companies are making money using free software without giving anything back ... And that's disgusting. Check the latest Redhat move ...

Redhat not giving back?

Do you think Redhat hasn't contributed to Linux?

I swear, I'm about to punch a wall reading these replies. Holy shit.
