     @r000t Sharing videos with your neighbors is not morally equivalent to theft and murder with the help of a boat and watching a video doesn't "consume" it.
     
     Indeed you cannot watch anything modern without surrendering your freedom unless you utilize unauthorized copying.

     So called "intellectual property" is not even in the set of things that *can* be owned. As both non-rivalrous and non-excludable, basic economic theory says piracy should be government subsidized. This is econ 101 stuff, I really don't understand how we're still even discussing IP seriously in the 21st century.
