the difference between the bedroom kid and the pirate at sea is scale.
The kid in the bedroom is just one of a sea of pirates bringing down an entire industry, while the pirate at sea only affects a portion of his ocean.
One kid in their bedroom, if they upload a pirated song, can potentially steal millions from an artist. Certainly in my experience, the loss of publicity caused by one mistaken upload was pretty significant.
But whatever. It's all small-fry compared to having a daughter. She rocks my world.
