If you have trouble extracting the meaning from this I'll help you out.

Many people around here hate big corpos which is very good.

Many people around here pirate stuff. This is not great since people have to be paid for their work. There are many mitigating circumstances, like if you can’t afford it, for example. In those cases it’s quite healthy since people get exposed to culture and from pure business standpoint might still mean some sales in the future.

Many people around here are critical of business decisions from big corporations. They’re obviously free to do that. At the same times, as long as those companies are not monopolies / oligopolies or doing anything illegal, they should be allowed to carry on.

Many people around here expect companies to just roll over and give them stuff. And that’s just being a spoiled brat.
