If piracy is moral and ethical and enables us to share knowledge, why do private trackers gatekeep this knowledge? It goes against the principles of piracy. Do they do it just to feel superior about bring in a sekrit club?

    If piracy is moral and ethical and enables us to share knowledge, why do private trackers gatekeep this knowledge?

    Because thats not how most people see it. It’s just a way to watch movies (or download stuff) for free. Private trackers ensure a higher quality experience

    Piracy isn’t some high philosophical debate, it’s seeing something you want and making a copy of it.
