question about piracy

[T3HZ3N0N]

so is it piracy if you torrent a season of subbed anime, when you can just turn your adblock on and go watch it for free on a website like http://www.watchanimeon.com/anime-list/?


if you have adblock they cant make money off of you.. so how would torrenting be different?


EDIT: this cant get me banned guys stop saying that

well, technically the watchanimeon website is pirating the anime and letting you watch it, while downloading it basically means you downloaded it yourself to watch it.
which is still pirating, but, the internet.

pretty sure that if it were illegal to block ads, adblocker would be illegal

this thing on the anime topic is also doing this then:

http://www.animefreak.tv/ (subbed and dubbed)
http://www.animeultima.tv/ (subbed and dubbed, I believe)
http://www.lovelyanime.com/ (all subbed)

would it technically be piracy?

im saying if you can just turn on adblock and watch it with no ads (not making money), cant you just download it via torrent and you wont get in trouble or anything?

i don't understand this adblock or ads vs piracy argument at all
it's two different things entirely

Pretty much, but no one really cares.
I'm not encouraging you to pirate stuff because that'd get me banned, but just saying.

i don't understand this adblock or ads vs piracy argument at all
it's two different things entirely

adblocking = no ads = no money to companies = not making money, pirating = no ads/revinue = no money to companies = not making money

also watching an anime for free on a site that gets money for hosting content that isn't there's is still pirating, turning off advertisements doesn't change a thing. Just do what i do, watch the anime, if you really like it/support the creators, buy the DVDs.
i have FMA/FMA:B/Death Note on my shelf, love them so much <3
