I’ll go straight to the point:
- Piracy is useful to bypass regional frontiers and access to censored content
- Piracy is helpful to watch content without supporting it if you consider it not worth of it
- Piracy might be helpful for content preservation and survival
- Piracy is useful to ACTUALLY evaluate whether to spend money on some digital content or not
- Piracy is sometimes the only way to actually own DRM-protected content
This is actually a very underrated comment imho. The term piracy is used to make what those of us on this community do look worse. I prefer the term sharing because that is usually what you do when you ‘pirate.’ If you seed a torrent or host a ddl site, you are sharing.
