You certainly asserted such by arguing piracy is morally.

No I didn't. You are either ignoring or misunderstanding what I'm saying. My claim is that certain arguments don't justify why piracy is permissible. Not that piracy is morally wrong.

If IP belonged to the public ...

I'm not making any claims about who IP belongs to.

So please, by what authority are you asserting puts IP in the hands of private interests, thus making piracy a moral wrongdoing.

I can't give you any authority on this because if you reread what I actually said, I'm not claiming piracy is morally wrong and I'm not claiming anything about IP ownership.

    You revised your text to change its wording. No footnotes.

    And then you accuse me of ignoring or misunderstanding without acknowledgement that you've altered the thread.

    I can no longer assume that you're arguing in good faith.

    I'm pretty new to lemmy, but in the web interface comments which have been edited show a little pencil icon with their edit time where the post time used to be. If you look through our comment exchange you'll notice, none of my comments to you have that icon. I did edit a comment to somebody else, in that comment I added a footnote asking for more details about a point they were making, this had nothing to do with our exchange.

    Notice also, in my original message (which has not been edited), my point was "I don’t think this particular line of thought makes for a very good argument without more info", this is exactly what I have been telling you my point was this whole time, whether or not I edited any comments.

    I can no longer assume that you’re arguing in good faith.

    It's pretty ironic to assume the other person is not acting in good faith while you continually respond to a misrepresentation of their position. This is very literally a strawman fallacy. If you aren't intentionally misunderstanding what I'm saying, then you should work on your reading comprehension skills.
