We all fucking know what 'piracy' means in terms of software piracy and copyright infringement.
People like you are just being pedantic for the sake of derailing the argument.
Just admit you are a fucking leech and move on.
Except you do not know what copyright infringement is. One must be depriving the owner their rights, such as distributing copyright material. The real loser here is youtube. By not watching ads, youre costing them bandwidth and violates theyre ToS. But theyre a multi billion dollar tech giant that has no quams about fucking society over. So fuckem.
Me: stop being a pedantic twat, we all know what everyone means by piracy in this case
You: let me be even more pedantic
It's ok bro just admit you're a leech and move on.
You literally do not have to use YouTube.
And what exactly would not using youtube accomplish?
It'd make you less of a self righteous leech for a start.
A leech to who?
Let's just say I am not surprised you have no clue.
Not answering my question suggests you dont have any clue either.
It's the content creators you fucking single braincelled organism
Ah... so... you assume i dont directly support creators because i dont watch corporate marketing?
You certainly don't, considering you're crying about YouTube ads. If you were actually supporting the creators of the content you watch, you'd be able to watch their content on whichever platform you support them on, ad free.
Not if they only upload to youtube...
Lmao sure.
It's ok to be a leech man just admit it and move on.
you must been in marketing to be this upset noone wants to watch advertisement to shitty products.
No, but I understand how free content distribution works.
