Also, the elephant in the remains in the room: discussing piracy is not piracy.
Saying "I pirated XYZ", though, is admitting to a criminal act, and can be used in court if linked strongly to a person through their account information and IP address.
I am the zodiac killer. I am DB Cooper. I shot Tupac. Jimmy Hoffa is buried in my backyard.
Come get me.
I killed Kennedy
Don't pirate my achievements bro
I'm not sure that's actually true. I'm not a lawyer but I suspect it would take more than an internet comment saying "I did it."
Arr there matey, I've been pirating them cat videos over them interwebs again. I love Cox, they even know that I pirate all the cat videos and they just tosh the any letters that they get pertaining to my activities on the intertubes into their paper shredder.
Is this an admission? While it would seem like it, I think not. How does anyone know what is true or not, especially when it's on the internet. Like me, am I the real LimeWire? How can you be sure?
Exactly is freedom of speech.
