​I used to have a hard time sharing the things I bought with the piracy community

It just felt wrong to give things away to people who hadn't paid a thing. I felt like I was hurting the creators who actually put in the work

​But then I realized I was guarding something that wasn't even mine, all I bought was a license that could be revoked at any time... it never truly belonged to me

I was just being selfish. Now every now and then I make sure to share the content I purchase
