    Why is it that when regular people pirate something, they immediately get a notification from the isp, threatening legal action, but when Nvidia pirates something en masse, it’s called groundbreaking innovation

      Because Nvidia has an army of lawyers and a mountain of cash, duh

      I mean, Nvidia is being sued by rightsholders in a class action lawsuit.

          Then you have to agree that piracy is theft and people pirating content should be sued.

            It’s not theft, but it is copyright infringement. I pirate, but I’m under no illusions about what I’m doing. I do try to contribute back to the artist directly where possible.

          I only bring it up to make the point that not everybody is calling what Nvidia is doing ‘groundbreaking innovation’.
