(April 14, 2015 at 7:47 pm)One Above All Wrote: FYI: I justify piracy with the fact that game developers intentionally inflate their prices for no reason other than to maximize profits, and I find it hard to give even half a fuck whether they make slightly less money than they were hoping for, the latter of which is still in the millions.

So morality is a process, by which a thief determines whether the party being robbed deserves the stolen resources? I can steal, for example, Windows, because "Micro$oft" is big and evil, but I can't steal from an Indie game developer?
