Because they're consoomers. Consoomers don't like people who supposedly threaten their product that they shall consoom later.
And consoomers don't want to make the hand that feeds them angry so they'll buy into any and every lie that's been pitched for years about piracy.
"And consoomers don’t want to make the hand that feeds them angry" oh god this is so true. I see a lot of youtubers/bloggers who act on this statement, and it really pisses me off... they can't even mention "piracy" without saying it's illegal within the first few seconds of mentioning it, many of these people I feel have already sold their souls to big corporations and others I feel live like they have a gun pointed at them, and so they can only say what is "allowed" and nothing more.
