@320x200 @l03s Thank you so much for these thoughts! (And for lurk's 1337 char limit 😉) What probably hit me the most in your article is that piracy is not illegal anymore, at least for some actors. But clearly piracy needs to remain illegal to fulfill its valuable role to make materials available to communities that otherwise would have no way of accessing them, vetting them for quality/usefulness (not hoarding), and preventing piracy projects to grow into "platforms" that then run on some platform logic. The celebration and activist expansion of legal loopholes that allow some forms of piracy which, for instance, the Swedish Piratbyrån pushed forward, laid the groundwork for where we are now kind of.
