> Except it isn’t and Joe Biden is a senile moron. Because when you smash the windows and grab the stuff, Tiffany’s no longer has the stuff. With piracy, everyone has the stuff. It’s a lot more like taking a picture, which Tiffany’s probably encourages. Win-win cooperation.

Having a picture of jewelry is not even remotely close to having actual jewelry. When you pirate something you destroy its value, that's basic supply and demand. Sure, everyone has the stuff, but it's now worthless. Great for the consumer obviously but terrible for the producer.
