What would you considered "Ethical Piracy"
Hi guys, first of all, I fully support Piracy. But Im writing a piece on my blog about what I might considere as "Ethical Piracy" and I would like to hear your concepts of it.
Basically my line is if I have the capacity of paying for something and is more convinient that pirating, ill pay. It happens to me a lot when I wanna watch a movie with my boyfriend. I like original audio, but he likes dub, so instead of scrapping through the web looking for a dub, I just select the language on the streaming platform. That is convinient to me.
In what situations do you think is not OK to pirate something? And where is 100 justified and everybody should sail the seas instead?
I would like to hear you.

IMO piracy is ethical in general.
You can pay to enter a museum to look at a painting, or you can look at it online, even print a copy of it and non one will care.
How is that different than seeing a movie online instead of going to a cinema? Really the only difference is that we’ve gotten used to pay for copies of movies, unlike paintings. These days you don’t even get to keep the copy you pay for.
Edit: I believe if you like some content, it would be nice if you could financially support the creator.
I just don’t think it should be mandatory, and I actually think all this money does is make the content worse over time.
The problem with this logic is you’re assuming the payment at the theater the only consideration.
