Consuming the fruit of someone's labor is "profiting from it"
The labor needs to exist in order for you to have access to the content you're pirating so yes in a way it's forced to exist otherwise this conversation wouldn't happen in the first place as there would be no content to pirate.
you're making up that definition of profit
To profit > to obtain an advantage or benefit
The entertainment you get from the product is a form of profit
you are stretching the term to meaninglessness
I'm using an official definition of the word
no one made them produce the game. they could have chosen not to do that, and there would be no consequences at all. it's not slavery.
Then no one should buy anything until we reach a point where no one produces anything because there's no incentive to.
this sentence makes me suspect English is not your first language because it makes no sense.
How? I mean, by your logic why should people buy anything instead of just copying/stealing it? No one gets hurt if we do so, you said so yourself!
