Hi guys, I just wanted to call out an inappropriate term I've seen used sometimes: Civil Disobedience. It's not just civil disobedience when you pirate something privately, you need to do it publicly and dare the authorities to do something about it.

So an example here would be to set up a massive leech party and advertise it specifically as civil disobedience. Say all manner of things from all manner of copyright holders would be transmitted, and try and get news coverage. That's civil disobedience.

Just downloading a movie because you want to watch it is not. OK thanks for your time.

My wife pays for X and y, and I pay for Z because I get next day delivery and Z is just kinda included in that. I would prefer for my wife to not pay for X and Y because they're profiteering cunts (as is Z but I like next day delivery).

Wife won't stop paying for X and Y because she doesn't understand how R works. She doesn't understand how X and Y works either but they do work all the time and R doesn't because I'm still learning.

The other day I couldn't get R working properly. While I was trying to fix it she went and paid for Z to watch the thing I was trying to fix on R.

Wife doesn't understand why that was a massive insult.
