While I understand you might feel somewhat screwed over, and hell, you are screwed over, I find it difficult to condone protest piracy where it comes to the acquisition of luxury goods. Necessities, that's a whole 'nother story.

Turns out that a five way cross over between It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the Ali G Show, Fargo, Idiocracy and Veep is a lot less funny when you're actually living in it.

Taking money from highway robbers isn't the most ethical thing in the world, but I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
