because everyone knows the pros to piracy (and there's only one: you get your shit for free)
What do you mean "only one"? There's lots of features except monetary gain. Skip on-line activation, iso directly mountable, no dvd-check on startup etc. There's also loads more of reason in other mediums, so your attempt to bring guilt upon pirats (there just greedy, nothing more. Ever) and your assumption this is pubic knowledge is just mean.

There are plenty of people here that are incredibly (and incredulously) pro piracy and they'll come down on you with their invalid arguments like a tonne of bricks.
Are you implying *all* arguments put forth by the anti-ant-piracy movement are invalid? That just doesn't roll.

Actually, in this case it is right to tell others what they can and can not think about stealing: stealing is a crime.

So YES, in this case we had better damn well tell people what they should think about stealing (it's wrong, in case the Teleportation Box has twisted your sense of morals).
Stealing is a crime, yes. But pirating != stealing. A potential loss in profit is not in the same ballpark as removing valuables. This is propaganda, pure and simple.
In addition it's never OK to tell anyone their beliefs are invalid by default. All moral framework is relative. And the law isn't morally, humanitarian or locally absolute. it's generalized to keep matters simple.

While we're at it, we should make sure they know murder and rape are wrong too.
What the darn?
It's not nice to insinuate the pirates severely lack moral judgment. The notion that by just being a criminal automatically makes one devoid of humanity is aweful. Shame.

EDIT: Quotation fuckup on my part. Sorry Zeeky_Santos.

Nope. I'm saying the arguments used by the pro-piracy movement are invalid, because it all results in the same response:
don't like it = don't buy it
don't think its worth what they charge = don't buy it
don't think people have a right to charge money for their time, effort and resources = don't buy it, you idiot
I should also make it clear, lest I be misinterpreted that if you don't buy it, you don't have the right to it.

I can be more sympathetic to anti-anti-piracy advocates, but in the end the problem (or what they see as a problem) they speak out against is caused by pirates. Personally I think they need to rethink who they direct their complaints to.

I follow the links and don't know where you found these posts, I certainly didn't make them. Methinks you fabricated these things.

I'm now certain you're a troll. That or fanatic. Either way, what I do will never change your opinion. I'm out.

I don't understand the mentality of the you tube community and why they would not support anti piracy groups, if you look at the comments for the video i see no one saying good job or keep up the good fight, instead i see entitled people talking about how windows is a bad operating system, witch is not true.
I don't see why you're so surprised at this. Different people have different opinions. Have you looked at the threads about piracy on the Escapist, or anywhere else for that matter? There are plenty of people that would not support an anty piracy group.

Lol. No.

Wait... cold, jail hardened criminals?!? Are YOU trolling? Either that or you have a very limited knowledge about piracy and the people that pirate.

either troll of white knight, regardless it has no buisness on our internet. I've watched all your anti-piracy propaganda and the only arguable point I see is the protection of microsoft and their distributors' bottom dollar. I can respect the dragon for sitting on a pile of gold, but we all have bottom dollars, so you'll excuse me if protecting mine sometimes means taking yours
