      I disagree, unless you mean nautical piracy. The difference is that people are being swindled into paying them for a service that’s less effective than they represent it as being, whereas with piracy the only “loss” anyone suffers is speculative at best. What they’re doing is more like fraud, honestly. Unfortunately that speculative loss’s value is codified into law and the fraud is probably permitted as long as they have some fine print somewhere covering their asses.

      The same stuff as botting on torrents, even when the content being torrented is legally available on the creators website (adultswim.com), and then sending cease and desist letters. We won’t pay them bastards, so our strategy in court will be that it IS fully available, legally.
