You wouldn't download a virus

Piracy is THEFT

All those companies are stealing from their users. If I steal from a thief, is it really theft?

It was meant to be a joke... viruses are MEANT to be downloaded by their creators, but nobody would actually want to do that

Sorry. I suffer from being too literal sole times (most of the time actually).
