I watch pirated TV shows on the Internet Archive.
Its a good source for shows that are not in the public domain and not readily available on places like youtube.
The Internet Archive is a great source for legal and pirated material
under the guise of a "not for profit" "free speech supporter".
Once again, just because something is free, does not make it fair use.
And this claim of "preserving the internet and all its content for future generations" is a laugh.
It is nothing more than a modern automated version of a peer-to-peer file sharing site,
where the public uploads the material, and anyone can download.
Since you posted the question, you obviously know the answer already.
Heres my two cents...if you download pirated material, don't share it.
Don't broadcast it.
If you like the model, go out and find a copy of the original and buy it.
(Hopefully from the original author or distributor)
Don't build the pirated copy.
