So if I buy a physical game in the US, that is me buying a licence to play the game (as it has already been made clear legally that I do not own the game through means of DRM). If I then move to a dofferent country and take that game with me without repurchasing it in another country, is that piracy?
Na coz you own the media outright. But streaming a show from a country on Netflix that you are not in, is against the licences terms. I don't think you would be liable. Its more a Netflix problem providing media to someone who theyre not licenced to share it with.
Yes. And airlines are active participants in the piracy chain. I mean, they openly advertise their services with the ability to switch the country you're in! BAN THEM!
