&gt; Piracy is the correcting hand of the free market, where obtaining things for free is easier and less byzantine than by paid channels. Psychological research has proven time and time again that most people are willing to pay, but unwilling to have their personal rights trampled by draconian licensing and DRM.<p>No, the (ethical) correcting hand of the free market is not buying things, not deciding you are entitled to any entertainment content anyone produces.<p>&gt; Luckily your opinions, however misinformed, are irrelevant because anyone who understands this will never give up the fight. We understand how international trade deals and copyright law are being used offensively against the public, and we will not relinquish control over the devices we&#x27;ve rightfully purchased.<p>Yes, if you rightfully purchase something, then I&#x27;ll agree you have every right to skirt DRM if it is not letting you use what you purchased. But just stealing it outright is exactly how we&#x27;ve ended up with things like TPP and the DMCA, or Hollywood&#x27;s relatively recent trend of spit-firing bad movies so they&#x27;ll at least make something in the box office.
