Interesting. I thought the appeal of piracy-related stories on HN was that there's a lot of piracy going on, as private individuals.
And also because some subset of those consider piracy a hobby, mission, or right, not only a pragmatic way to get the content they want.
But I guess some people could be interested in the platform responsibility angle.
However, when discussing obviously entirely piracy platforms, isn't the interest and dialogue different, than it is for general-purpose platforms with only a fraction of the user contributions being problematic, and good-faith efforts to mitigate those?
