    If the no ads and ads free version contains adds then pirating is also not immoral anymore.

      Call it what it is - copyright infringement. Piracy is the act of robbery on the high seas, but we’ve allowed media companies to take a shit in our vocabularies so we can’t call things by their proper names.

        If the “no ads” and “ads free” version contains ads, then pirating the TV shows/movies is not immoral either.

          I think they are pointing out that saying “no ads” and "ad-free about stuff that has ads is not using the words correctly. Could be wrong.
