    The way I see it is that piracy IS stealing. Not of the digital items but of the income that they potentially would have had. But I just don’t give a fuck

      I’m sorry, but I read your comment and didn’t find it interesting.

      I’ll have to sue you for the incredible things that I could’ve potentially done in these 10 seconds you stole from me, like buying a winning lottery ticket. /s

      In that way, taxes can steal income from me that I potentially would’ve had if they didn’t exist, and if I could then spend that income on another service now the taxes stole it from that service

      “Potential” revenue is completely bullshit.
