Pirate is a word that reminds me of the movie pirates of the carribean. While Pirate in history is said to be the worse people of all because they steal and kill people just to salvage their food. Well in mordern world Pirate is someone who steals from another. the word Piracy means Theft.
With the internet we have in he present, we can basically become a pirate easily. Downloading videos/music/information online. Seriously even if the website disallow use to download pictures it only means that it is policy protector but there's a thing called screen shot on computers so... & there is also a thing called Photoshop and seriously one can just take a screen shot change it here and there and TaDA~ its new again. Nothing on the net is policy protected.
Pirates in the olden days use swords canons to rob the others but hey~ WE have even better things and it's comfortable. All we need to do is to sit down relax, turn on our laptop and VoiLA we are online doing some Ahem* Illegal stuff. I always feels that every one should have at least done a crime some where be it like downloading piracy things online or maybe porn at home? or rent 2nd hand DVDs. People just didn't realise that they are pirates themselves.
Even in games, trust me ANY GAme you played there is bound to have hackers. ANd seriously it just spoils the fun and they dont care because even when they are banned they can still create new character and continue to hack.
Like speaking of file sharing ain't all students pirates too? Well we always share information online with one another for submissions and stuff. Since everyone is watching/buying piracy DVDs because it is CHEAP/FREE. Human beings are just stingy but who can they blame? Everything is expensive now a days and not the mention the economy is not bad therefore people do such stuff to have fun and entertain themselves.
Piracy is something we all should not do but how many actually stopped? or should i say how many actually didn't do it at all? People will just use excuses like if he can do it i can do it too.
Well,I would say that the do not do crime video might work and well singapore started closing down music websites for free downloads online.
