Comment on Everyone is stealing TV
BrightCandle@lemmy.world 20 hours agoTheft has a very specific definition, critically it requires the taking of something so that someone else is permenantly deprived of the thing. When something is cloned or copied its not theft, its all intellectual law driven so copyright and trademark breaches. No one is deprived of the product, only potentially the payment for a service.

Payment for a service that is way over inflated in terms of cost and overrun with advertising that should be subsidizing said programming.
