In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

Privacy isn’t stealing, so they dont.

We had many threads discussing this issue as pirating a copy of something does not hurt the producer.

In the same magnitude (of loss) you could say that robbing a car from a manufacturer does not hurt the company.

Because the "robber" would also not buy the car too. So depending on how you define economic loss this discussion leads to no end.

Stealing the right to distribution and money out of people's pockets. Kimdotcom really did a number on y'all.

No, literally and legally piracy is not theft.

Piracy is trade mark infringement, theft is physically stealing a material object.
