    So glad I didn’t buy any Sony PC port yet. I will pirate every single one of them.

      Just don’t play them at all. Pirating still gives their games attention that will lead to extra sales when compared to a complete flop.

        I want to play them. Sony PC ports are objectively good games. Maybe you subjectively don’t like some but you are a minority.

        They lost sales from me. Given time, I would probably buy all of them. I usually always buy games. I have 800 games on Steam.

          Nestlé products taste good. Does my Nestlé boycott still count if I steel it?

            I feel the argument is a little different when it comes to physical goods.

            Stealing a Nestlé product takes away revenue just like if it were left on the shelf, never purchased, and discarded by the shop. The main benefit there is the edible portion of the product doesn’t end up in a landfill.

              It’s the same when I look at my dignity. When I boycott a company or a specific product, I don’t even want it for free.

              No more Rolo, even when it is a gift.

                What would you say to vegan activists that break into farms and steal animals? That’s wrong too because they are boycotting the meat industry?

                  l would say it’s dumb because more animals get harmed that way, because the missing animals will get replaced.
