If you told me it was a screenshot from a fan made film I’d be really impressed.

Idk, luscious green forest doesn’t look much like fallout to me

You’re right, I got frustrated with work and took it out on you, I apologize.

The penal code necessarily uses incredibly narrow definitions with very specific verbiage.

Using the word steal in OPs title is common use of the word, which aligns with the dictionary definition, they certainly are not quoting a legal definition

Get outta here with this dumb shit.

So much ‘verbal’ diarrahhea to try to make yourself feel better about what you’re doing.

I pirate shit, that is a form a theft. Cope with it or stop doing it.

You do understand the difference between penal code and the definition of a word, no? Surely the reason why the two are not at all even slightly interchangeable is plainly clear to anyone of reasonable intelligence.

To selectively focus on one small sliver of the definition of the word, ignoring the full meaning of the word and the context to push your agenda? Smells like propaganda.

I guess you can’t steal anything when you just decide to limit the definition of the word.

But if we’re in reality and using the way words are actually defined then yes you can steal something intangible, and no it does not require someone to be deprived of something.

Theft isn’t specific to property, you can steal services too.

The water is certainly muddy with digital media, but this is just another oversimplified argument.

If you need to do mental gymnastics to feel OK about pirating then…idk find something better than this.

Thats apples and oranges to this situation.

Oh what a surprise, a non American being overly dramatic about their narrow picture on American life.
