So if we'd all copied that floppie, downloaded a car and stolen the tv set then Musk/Zuck/Gates/Thiele/Techbros/Trump/Brexit/Let It Rip/Vaccine Skeptics/AI Slop might never have happened?

At University, the #RIAA placed a full-page ad in our student newspaper to the effect of "WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE, PIRATES. Lawsuits are coming."
As a joke, I pinned it to the door of my dormitory, along with a brief manifesto, and a final line,
"I'll be away for a bit for the lawsuits."
I then bussed home for the weekend.
My new friends were worried it was real (fair).
