I wonder, is it instinctive though to buy something and expect it to work? I get mad when stuff doesn't work. You must feel like the corporation stole from you, so now why not steal from them? That's only a natural emotional respons, and we can't control the chemical releases in our brain. But we're also rational moral beings and we can understand that two wrongs don't make a right. If someone steals from us so we get mad and steal from them we're being hypocritical I suppose. I think the best message we can send to corporations about what products we want is with our buying power. So I like to think of every purchase as a democratic vote in the free market economy and take it up as my responsibility to investigate a product before voting for it. We live in such wealthy societies that we get used to spending money without thinking and consuming entertainment and luxury like ravenous fiends.
Well it's something I lie awake at night thinking about as I do enjoy the benefits of Capitalism.
I do love the technology that allows us to have access to every piece of art ever created without the corporations being able to hord it all in vaults and charge vast summs to enter.
