No American should be stealing my work, surely with the theft being perpetrated on their brand new iPhone as they claim they can't afford books. Thieves, plain and simple.
However, I can see people in less industrialized countries reading pirated books out of necessity, and in these cases, I really don't have a problem with it. I don't have a problem with a 19-year old in Cameroon who makes $100 USD a month illegally getting my work. If they get value from it, or put it to action, they can always pay me later.
Clearly you have not put your heart in soul into some creative endeavor, only to have someone like you steal it, and then justify your theft. I hope someday you pour 3 years of your life into some project, only to have someone steal it. And then hear, "Meh, it hurts no one."
SMH.

It’s not actually hurting anyone.
