The largest piracy community is hosted over at [email protected]
lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked [email protected].
If this is a problem for you, I’d suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn’t block it (such as lemm.ee).
edit:
An official announcement has been made:
It’s weird seeing people who think they are entitled to piracy. Appeal to emotion all you want. It won’t work. Boo-hoo. Poor college kids. You are still not entitled, legally, to copyright infringement. Creators and publishes DO OWN their intellectual property. Your attempts at logical fallacies are embarrassing.
Explains how it’s OK for you to not pay an artist for their creation when they do not offer that art for free.
Human Knowledge was develeped socially, its fruit should be shared socially. The commercial use of other people’s work is unethical and it’s basically what every copyright holder company do, with or without the permission of the author. To lock human knowledge behind copyright is more than simply wrong, it’s elitism. Thanks to piracy, several books that aren’t published anymore, several games and several movies were able to remain. Doctor Who, for example, have tons of episodes that only exists nowadays because someone recorded them.
