Ummm... not exactly, they sell shit and then take that shit away from you when they see fit. If that's not illegal, then me circumventing their DRM for my own personal use most definitely isn't.
Plus, it really is legal to do RCE for your own personal use. It's illegal to share that info.
I think you are mixing up illegal with unethical. I strongly disagree that any level of DRM warrants piracy. If you don't like a company having power over you its time to seek alternatives.
And piracy is so bad because... It's illegal?
Yes, and it is unethical as you are totally disregarding the copyright owner. You should buy DVDs and bluerays as that's the sweet spot for cost vs control.
This where you and I differ. I can cross that threshold if I'm motivated enough (have done it before). I'd do it just for the f u's if nothing else. And share it as an ultimate f u.
