Anyone upvoting or engaging with this, be less gullible please. Even if this wasn’t spam/scam posting what does it have to do with self-hosting?
I’m guessing it wouldn’t be a valid legal argument, but I liked the thought experiment of claiming that it can’t be piracy if the rights holder is intentionally publicly sharing the content.
