how do you even catch someone with pirated software? what if i just delete it before police comes?
Asher Young
I think this usually matters for corporations, who have audit requirements and such. Basically, Russia has no reason to enforce Microsoft's licensing rules and things like that, so they won't. This enables Russian business to keep using foreign software while they migrate to local things.
Have you used MyOffice?

A Dutch person went on vacation in Germany and forgot to delete the Popcorn time app, his hotel room legit got raided.
Grayson Brown
Also relevant is that many Western branches of companies have closed down, leaving many Russian programmers free to now work on native software instead of Western. This should accelerate the local industry.
James Nelson
everything is legal, until you get caught
Angel Green
I'm waiting for YT to delete wide putin because it's the dankest meme around.

If Russia legalizes piracy and improved their internet hosting protection laws (like a beefier version of section 230) they could genuinely become an economic juggernaut in the next century. There's a reason most sites are hosted in the US and that reason is section 230.
Jose Young
you are going to laugh right up until you get cut out of torrenting
>we will sell cds in markets.
At unreasonable prices. get mega fucked you bastards.
Cooper Parker
Golden age of pirated software incoming.
Connor Baker
Fucking based, but don't we all do that
Aiden Cruz
The west government simps hate chads like Putin, Assad etc.

>legalise piracy
>economic juggernaut
this is your brain on kremlin farts
Julian Butler
Use it privatey, don't disclose and no-one will care. But if you're a public business and you systematically use pirated software for non-private purposes, you will get caught sooner or later
Sebastian Nguyen
lol, sell microsoft stock now before it shits the bed

Cogent dropped their network backbone last week and a few others may try the same. There is clearly fear from the West that Russia will do just that. It won't matter because they'll just move backbones east. Russia's internet is huge.
Caleb Foster
how so? it's always been the golden age. Hell i don't even remember the last time I bought software. Russians never prosecuted their people for copyright infringement, same as many other countries who don't give a shit about it. So this is literally 0 change. Only americans are persecuted for this shit.

legalize FOREIGN piracy. at the same time supplementing local production.
Connor Roberts
If you have a bussnes and some former employee reports you. Or you get a random inspection.
Liam Garcia
Copyright is not a real right.
Intellectual property isn't real property
Kayden Davis
Guess What! I now have a legal WinRAR!!

>Buy my software, you filthy goy! BLM!
>The new Kill Wypipo III is pretty lit, my zoomer.
No, it's OUR software.

Jack Howard

>dude free entertainment, software etc
>why should we buy our countries stuff?
>oh fuck why is our economy down the shitter
Camden Mitchell
No shit, genius. It's the ownership of intangible, potentially ubiquitous assets.

Steam was another reason, people don't do much pirating too, you can get almost every game cheap other than the overprice shitty AAA game.
Mason Diaz
Watch lefty open source fags rise in indignation to protect western closed-source business interets.

This is the full article with much more information. You can read it while you dilate.

It is not a police issue, it is a civil issue.
Benjamin Nelson
Github trannies have already been blocking libraries to Russians.
Samuel Johnson
If you think anti-piracy measures help the economy, you're a brain damaged retard.
The most successful anti-piracy measure is giving people a good reason to buy your product.
Charles Hughes
Remind me, why do we need to hate Russia?
William Turner
>You made
> i copy
If i buy i support you in tax lol
Evan Thomas
Based, but if they're anything like us, aka broke, they're all pirating their shit there anyway.

Imagine paying for a product that you can download infinite times.
Its not a scarce resource, its infinite with infinite means of getting it, according to supply and demand, its free.
Adrian Cruz
But that's why OS is superior, someone can always make a fork and distribute it to russians and everybody. I love seething trannies and use GPLv3+NIGGER
David Lee
>entertainment
You mean propaganda. If you're so moron to pay for your own propaganda then you are a plebbtor and you deserve to give your money for it.
>software
Software is already free you appletard
Owen Myers
Steam is an example of how you effectively compete against free. You provide a bunch of value that you cannot get from a pirated game. They've proven that the best anti-piracy measure isn't laws and police kicking down doors to throw people sharing software in jail, it's to make a product people want to buy and will buy regardless of the fact they can pirate.
Angel Wood
Russia already has a very robust linux distribution Astra-Linux
Levi Long
wouldn't this hurt russian devs? if a russian develops a version of photoshop, why would anyone use it if you are able to use adobe's for free?
Isaiah Ward
I haven't bought western shit in a long time but it's good to know that I'll be pirate everything in the future
Jose Adams
>to pay for your own indoctrination*
Luis Diaz
If Putin told his citizens to pirate Western entertainment instead of paying for it, Hollywood celebs all in unison would call for nuclear war.
Daniel Johnson
>download pirated software infected with western malware
>install it on ever computer of every company, with admin priviliges
>nato cyberattacks russia
are the ruskies dumb?
Levi Cooper
That's discussed here In practice this is a band-aid measure. Russia already has rules requiring companies use domestic tools if possible so once their hypothetical photoshop competitor reaches a certain level it will be required that companies use it. in the meantime they can pirate adobe dogshit.
Dylan Morris
So nothing changes.
Wow
Andrew Brooks
literal state media was mocking the Disney pull-out a few days ago and saying "oh well I guess we'll just go back to torrenting everything."
Camden Wilson
Based fuck big tech and they’re money hungry jewish scams Russia just can’t stop winning
Aiden Martin
Kek. I've begun the process of migrating away from Microsoft pajeetware. I still need it for work, but personal stuff being moved to Linux/Libre. Should have done it years ago. They literally will cancel a cunt for saying nigger or whatever. They probably think the nigger word is even worse than invading Ukraine.
Now to find a VPN that isn't hosted in Israel. I think they are all pozzed desu.
