    Ubisoft needs to get comfortable with the idea of people not buying their games then 😝

    Eh… piracy wasn’t theft even before this, because you’re not taking it away from someone else.

    If I had a penny for every time I saw this quote decontextualised. I’d have enough to buy a Ubisoft game.

    Which is kinda sad that it’s been that often.

    From my understanding theft has always been to take something and after the other party doesn’t have it anymore. This never applied to piracy.

    For example: I used to pirate games back in school as I didn’t have the money to buy them. So there is no financial loss for the company. Yet they still frame it as bank robbery or something. “You wouldn’t download a car”

      Hollywood was so adamant about “not downloading a car”.

      Now they are the ones downloading actors.

        Hollywood was so adamant about “not downloading a car”.

        That was a meme. The original ads were always “you wouldn’t steal a car”. Someone doctored a screenshot from the ad as a joke and now there are a whole bunch of people who think the ads actually said that.

    Looks like late stage capitalism is taking away people’s right to personal property.
