Gideon believes that fair use gives him the right to buy some content then upload/seed it to torrent sites as a form of "backing it up to the swarm." He claims it is his fair use right to get free redundant back ups of content and that is all he is doing.
To me, and I think most people in this forum, that is piracy. That is distributing content that he doesn't have the right to distribute.
When you say shit like that to people who make and sell content for a living they tend to get a little pissed off.
