Your 100% correct ," you wouldn't steal a car " , "you wouldn't steal a purse" "steal a tv" , "piracy is stealing"
who ever posted that YouTube link , it's the wrong video , it dosnt even show the girl downloading a video on a 90s computer, before getting up and grabbing her bag to go to school , like some spy kids bs
I wouldn't down load a car made of simple fixable components. But witha all the touch screen broken on delivery tech in current cars that you need to pay a subscription for basic operation features, today theres zero way I'm buying any new car.
A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel hanging from his belt. The bar tender says "Whats the steering wheel for?" The Pirate says "Arrrgh it be drivin' me nuts.". Ill show myself out...
Fun Fact: The reason they stopped putting this anti-piracy ad in movies is because, ironically, the creators of the ad pirated the music used for it & got sued.
The comment isn't really on topic, just remembered how Crysis 3 struggled with pirates, so thought I'd tell you about it
In short, the player has the opportunity to go through the entire game, but specifically the final boss turns into not killable and behaves as inadequate as possible compared to the licensed game.
I hope someone was interested xd
And crime doesnāt pay
And we go home poor at the end of the day
But Iād rather live my life in rags
Than be taped to a desk with a wife as a hag
We live each day like thereās nothing to lose
But a man has needs and the need is booze
They say all the best things in life are free
So give all your beer and your rum to me
You mean the stolen music for the anti piracy ad? The people who made that ad only originally paid the person who made the music for licensing to use it in one film festival... then continued to use it, showing up in basically every movie for 3 years
Heh, we didn't have a big bootleg video market where I grew up, but when I saw an illegitimate copy of Shoalin Vs Wu Tang on VHS at 15, I scooped that up with the quickness (due to the rap group... it was like Christmas morning over and over hearing/seeing all the samples from the albums)
My old job was DVD authoring.
I was extremely competent, but one mistake I somehow always made was "accidentally" making these things skippable.
Somehow the checks and balances never caught these mistakes before thousands of discs were already pressed and the clients figured just accept it.
Kind of. It was a breech of contract and continued use outside of the scope of the original licensing. The track was originally going to be used for an ad that was only to be shown at a Dutch film festival... and then they kept using the ad without renegotiating with the artist for further use. They even made additional variants still using the same music
False advertisement is a crime.
I remember juicy juice getting bent over a barrel for it.
Sales of the games, movies, and tv shows certainly didnāt have you not owning the content in a written document either.
So Iām sure thereās a case for it if someoneās willing to throw their time and money at the problem, while the game companies throw their money at stonewalling them.
"You wouldn't download a car" Fuck yes, I would...
Of course I would download a fucking 93 skyline, are you batshit mad!?!?
Why wouldn't I download a car.
Would you steal the Batmobile? Is that even a question???!
With 3D printers, we can.
You'll never get through airport security with one though
The Mandela effect is strong with this one. The quote is actually "You wouldn't steal a car"

None of these are the actual ad
I'd download entire generations of cars
If I could I would download a fucking bank. Yes I am broke...
Download more RAM.
I wouldn't down load a car made of simple fixable components. But witha all the touch screen broken on delivery tech in current cars that you need to pay a subscription for basic operation features, today theres zero way I'm buying any new car.
At current price, I'd download a whole fleet and give them away to my friends.
With the power of 3-D printing now we can!
Yes I used to smuggle rum in the Caribbean on a galleon
Arrrrr, matey!
A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel hanging from his belt. The bar tender says "Whats the steering wheel for?" The Pirate says "Arrrgh it be drivin' me nuts.". Ill show myself out...
I'm stealing this!
Avast me hardy
She doesn't want your hardy mate
*leave her johnny leave her*

Raise streaming prices, piracy goes up. Lower streaming prices, piracy goes down. It's not a complicated math problem.
You wouldn't download a bear!
Apparently most women would so they can replace their man
I can download alcohol?! WHERE?!
Fun Fact: The reason they stopped putting this anti-piracy ad in movies is because, ironically, the creators of the ad pirated the music used for it & got sued.
you wouldn't download a car would you?
would
I download them all the time (For beamNG.Drive)
*steal* The quote is "you wouldn't steal a car"
It was an [IT Crowd skit](https://youtu.be/ALZZx1xmAzg?si=QyAcgrkYZN3wPCP5), though it went considerably further.
some get it some didn't props for the video
I just barely, vaguely remember this, and even I can say it's steal, not download. The download comes from something else, I think
"you wouldn't go to the toilet in a policeman's helmet."
His boots on the other hand are free game.

Iirc, GTA4 made all the cars unusable by making them drive themselves and explode randomly
Game Dev Tycoon made the game extremely difficult on the pirated version. And you get an achievement for actually buying it.
If I heard correctly the pirated version made you fail due to piracy taking all your profits. If true that is peak Dev trolling š
Thatās amazing š¤£
Damn, what is considered old these days?
And crime doesnāt pay And we go home poor at the end of the day But Iād rather live my life in rags Than be taped to a desk with a wife as a hag We live each day like thereās nothing to lose But a man has needs and the need is booze They say all the best things in life are free So give all your beer and your rum to me
Yes. I am 19.
Yes 18
Yes 17
Your parents put DVDs on for you
Same. I have an excuse.
I really hate all these āare you this oldā memes because they usually just show something from my 30s.
The pirates were epic, though. They managed to build up a pretty successful republic.
*Chuckles with memories of dual VCRs*
I can hear the music
You mean the stolen music for the anti piracy ad? The people who made that ad only originally paid the person who made the music for licensing to use it in one film festival... then continued to use it, showing up in basically every movie for 3 years
And the best part about that advertisement against piracy is that the song used was in fact pirated itself
$75 for YouTube TV? Netflix and prime advertising? Just means it's time to pirate again. Stop fooking gouging US and you won't get pirated.
Yeah, but is anybody old enough to remember [this older, much more terrifying piracy ad?](https://youtu.be/EnLVyNB52R8?si=6lLU0b3wU-p09UmE)?
Heh, we didn't have a big bootleg video market where I grew up, but when I saw an illegitimate copy of Shoalin Vs Wu Tang on VHS at 15, I scooped that up with the quickness (due to the rap group... it was like Christmas morning over and over hearing/seeing all the samples from the albums)
I donāt think piracy STOPPED being a crime So, yes.
yes.
Do you even got to be 30 to remember this?
My old job was DVD authoring. I was extremely competent, but one mistake I somehow always made was "accidentally" making these things skippable. Somehow the checks and balances never caught these mistakes before thousands of discs were already pressed and the clients figured just accept it.
Dont forget EPIC MOVIE TRAILER VOICE GUY before the movie begins and the obligatory FBI cue card that prohibits anyone from distributing said movie
It's my religious right as a Kopimist
WOULD YOU STEAL A CAR āļøāļøāļøāļøššššššš„š„š„š„š„
I remember having a dvd of the robots movie (2005) and I got so much hype watching that ad. I liked it so much I started pirating!
it aint a crime when the companies keep the game after i gave them more then a dime
I have one disc that has that before the actual movie, it might be LEGO movie?
Most CDs from the 00s had it, as far as I remember
Shit, got me.
In the theaters, right?
Kinda? I was alive when it was still being put on DVDs but too young to remember at the time but I did watch the DVDs when I was older than that too
I can hear this image.
Sadly, I am that old. ![gif](giphy|7SF5scGB2AFrgsXP63|downsized)
OLDER
Hollywood video type beat
Yep
What do you mean old? It was not that time ago
I remember something about this braking copyright by using an unlicensed music track in the ad. Not sure if it was true though.
Kind of. It was a breech of contract and continued use outside of the scope of the original licensing. The track was originally going to be used for an ad that was only to be shown at a Dutch film festival... and then they kept using the ad without renegotiating with the artist for further use. They even made additional variants still using the same music
![gif](giphy|10X22vzgNamaiI)
The irony of this is that the music they used was essentially stolen lmao
Oh you kids...
The funny thing was when you'd see this on the burnt copy
Oh man, Iām still afraid of that sign..
Weirdly enough, I saw these when I was 5-7 years old, constantly rewatching Toy Story 2 on my DVD. They were funny :)
Yes
:shakes fist at Metallica for ruining Napster: lol
Yes
You wouldn't download a gender
https://youtu.be/AaGNaP6sKdc?si=OryHBn8WFxJMFj2B
I can hear the music. witch I heard was ironically stolen. But I Need to confirm if that was true. it just sounds too funny.
Yes, I was 16-17-18ish during this shit.
*Sigh* YESSSSS
Piracy is still a crime
Im pre ICQ and My Space and Napster. Im more of the BBS kinda guy.
"You wouldn't steal from a store!" Usa 2024 would begg the differ,sir
Shit gave me nightmares
Yes, yes i am...
How can we make stealing sound even cooler?
Yes
I am now after seeing this again. Youāve made me rethink many life decisions because of this ![gif](giphy|RfHEXGZHZxLhVG32pi|downsized)
Last time I saw that I was pirating a movie while reading itšššš
Ahh false advertising, I remember when they claimed cocaine was a cure for fatigue. Good times
I'm old enough to remember that everyone misquotes this as "You wouldn't download a car"
I watched a movie on Prime recently that still had the FBI warning at the beginning for whatever reason.
You wouldn't steal a CD, copyright is a crime
Yup yup. Also the house hippo is in my memory.
HELL YEAH BROTHER1!!1!!!
It is an unethical practice in capitalist society, however Iād be a fool not to get free things from secured torrents.
It's a right. Fuck the entertainment industry.
Pretty sure piracy is still a crime.
So is revoking access after you bought and paid for a piece of media. Or it should be at least

You wouldnāt shoot a police officer And then steal his helmet
You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet
Piracy has been a crime since the 1400s. And no, I wouldn't download a car.
Fuck, I wouldā¦
My fellow americansā¦.(edit- who ever down voted me never destroyed the family computer. )
Crime against whom?
