As Mr Krabs would say, "it's not stealing, it's borrowing. You can borrow anything you'd like as long as you give it back"
So I'll just "give back" all my copies I have obtained, before I die!
Why not after? You put this in your testament: "I hereby give my movies back to google. Fuck google!"
Like my dumb uncle used to say when he lost a bet, which was often: "I'll will it to ya.'
He croaked, and stiffed me in his will, of course.
"give it back" means "seed to at least a ratio of 1.0"
I'm somewhere in the ~30:1 space currently
