Immoral piracy is the killing of the crew during the hijacking of a ship. There is no moral dilemma in downloading anything.

So what we have here is nothing else than wholesale purchase of cannon fodder.
Why should PM of 1B nation care of some fake news?
The whole point of “ethical” piracy is ridiculous. It’s old good corporate anti-piracy propaganda but rechewed with some progressive takes. “You wouldn’t download an indie car”, literally. If you need some justifications and excuses for piracy, than just don’t pirate at all. The fact that i’m downloading some game from torrent because i’ve broken purchased DVD with it never makes me more ethical in any way than some other leecher on the same torrent who’s never going to pay for it.
Only the content that i don’t care about.
4pda pretty obviously.
Seizing domains is HUGE blow but never a “Total Destruction”. Such ring is not operated by single enthusiast, it’s runned by a team of professional pirate siteops who do this for pretty comfortable living and who foresee such risks and have a plan for this type of incident. And i’m sure they have another bunch of domains already registered and fed to google. There’s no significant difference between getting domain banned in the country from where 95% of traffic is coming (and this is frequent issue) and loosing this domain at all. Your traffic is gone, your money is gone. So seizing domains without busting servers and siteops is far from winning final battle.
