    It’s not theft, it’s basically dumpster diving for living things. Living things that can grow in dirt with some water. They just see lost profit not an actual product loss.

      Pretty sure some people believe that dumpster diving is theft too

      They just see lost profit not an actual product loss.

      so it’s just like pirating movies

        Not really. When you pirate a movie you get the whole thing. Just as if you paid for it.

        A succulent leaf, however, needs years to become the size of an actual plant they would sell.

        It’s even less damaging than pirating.

          need years

          so it’s the same torrenting a movie in 4K that has only a single seeder and their connection is really poor

      That’s often not allowed either
