    You wouldnt’ pirate a human thought would you? The basis of this entire sub, that one pile of neurons deserves for life the rights to a computation.

      I just wrote it because it rhymed with the now memed 2004 anti piracy announcement You wouldn’t download a car that was rightfully criticized.

      …Are you a bot? Your account is less than a day old and this comment… almost made sense. But what the heck does this mean?

        Ideas/art/concepts/recipes/books are just waiting around to be discovered. We as a species discover them or develop them from our shared culture. And a bunch of rich fucks think they should get perpetual rights because they own all the content mills/researchers, regardless of how much the rest of the species would benefit.
