If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.

If someone is aware of piracy and doesn't care: "I don't really know, I just got it off of a torrent site."

If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don't work for: You can ignore them.

Do you know of any easily shareable beginner's guides?

I love turning friends onto free media, but I don't always want to walk them through it.

fmhy.pages.dev/beginners-guide/

fmhy.net also hosts the same guides I believe
