Re: What's a "privacy pirate"?
said by NormanS  :Actually, a movie, or music pirate distributes a copyright work without proper authorization. Not quite the same thing as "stealing" property, though it is a harm, and a criminal act. Please point me to any legitimate source that says that distribution is a component of piracy.
As I said in another post, I am fully aware of the difference between copyright infringement and stealing. |

My sarcasm detector is in the repair shop so I can't tell if you meant it that way or not. Regardless if you meant "distribution" or "unauthorized distribution", either one is not necessary a component of piracy. You can be a pirate without distributing, consumption may be sufficient. |
