You're not paying for the right to use something. That is theft of goods and services.

You mean it's theft. You're depriving people of use of their property without compensation.

yes and that’s theft.

Also known as, you know, theft.

This isn’t “stealing”, it’s just that, stealing. There should be legal consequences for providers that let this happen.

And some people consider that theft.

Holy mother of entitlement. Taking something without paying for it because you think it should be free isn't activism, it's, well, theft.

It's stolen from your kids. And mine.

> baby formula/diapers (this is exceptionally sad more than anything)

At first blush, you're crushingly obviously right. What kind of society do we have where people have to steal baby formula?

The real answer is much stranger: there's a lot of money to be made buying stolen baby formula and selling it to stores that won't ask where you got it. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/05/02/magazine/mone...

stealing a sub-par product is no fun.

But what are you going to steal from a child?

This isn't stealing though. The owning class agreed to this.

greg5green | karma 157 | avg karma 1.13 · | 2015-10-15 14:23:04+00:00

This was technically stealing.
