My argument for piracy and a lot of other things is this; these things are stolen from us.
The ISP overcharging me, the capitalists operating on infrastructure built with public funds, every part of the chain is designed to rob us of the prosperity that is rightfully ours.
What I’d like to do is use scalable architecture to create protocols, nodes, frameworks and components for alternate systems of finance and economy in which we can implement a new tamper proof system which doesnt allow for this.

It’s a global issue, but takes many forms. IMHO Iceland is worst in this aspect in the nordics. I like Denmark the most. Every place I’ve lived has it’s own set of problems.
