    Bold move, asking a “should I pirate?” question in a community called Piracy. Surely you’ll only receive unbiased answers here.

      Bias is inevitable.

      It makes no sense to work to eliminate it.

      It’s like trying to breed a new species of humans that are void of preferences. An impossible task. If such a breeding process somehow succeded, the resulting product would not be a human anyway.

      If anyone claims to be unbiased themselves, or claims freedom from bias for someone else, even just implying that someone somewhere is unbiased, I immediately know bullshit is afoot. Such claims are not always knowingly malicious, but are always detrimental to my interests should I start foolishly believing them.
