Well sorry, if I know the company will treat me and my PC as shit for buying their product, I'd rather consider using other party's services a way to go.

I directly helped with bug reports (that were indeed used to fix stuff) on several products I didn't own. You can also teach Minecraft's creator how indirect help of pirates is a shit perspective I guess.

Also no. Bytes can't be taken, only copied. As I said, physical world rules don't really work here. You can copy as much as you want without doing any harm, and someone might even thank you later for preserving some work of art that was mistreated or abandoned by its original distributors.
