Nothing Would Make Me Stop

Figure 4.3.1. Reasons to stop using online pirated content among intentional users of illegal sources Better affordability of content from legal sources — 43% If more content that I'm interested in would be available via legal sources — 37% Personal bad experience with illegal sources — 31% Bad experience of others with illegal sources — 29% Risk of being caught and fined — 24% A better understanding of the harm caused by my behaviour to the musicians, writers, artists, creators — 22% A better understanding of the harm caused by my behaviour to jobs and to the EU economy — 21% Nothing would make me stop — 6% Q2a. You indicated that you used illegal sources (websites) intentionally for online content during the past 12 months. What are all the elements that would make you stop using illegal sources? (Total base, n = 3 935)

A chart lists reasons that might make people stop using online pirated content, but the highlighted answer says “Nothing would make me stop,” next to a stern, muscular GigaChad image. The joke is that the person is completely unmoved by legal, financial, ethical, or legal consequences, presenting stubborn piracy as an exaggerated display of confidence. It is used as a reaction to show defiance or indifference toward arguments meant to change someone’s behavior.
