And this won't do a damn thing to stop pirates at all. Yarggh mateys!
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

It's that it can provide competition and force a monopoly to compete.

I thought rather than compete, the monopolies in question were just throwing their legal weight around and suing the shit out of everybody.

Perhaps I should have specified "In theory".
Mockery of ideas you don't comprehend or understand is the surest mark of unintelligence.
