I think a lot of people here actually mean foss when they say open source. Calling it foss might impart the right message and the importance of libre software to new folks. I am little conflicted about non-libre open source software as might be evident by now, maybe my bias is unjustified.

My time is more valuable than money, but I still pirate. To me it's not about money but principles.
If I pay for something and still can't "own" it, I pirate.
If a generous portion of the money I pay isn't going to the rightful individuals but to our corporate overlords, I pirate.
If my internet freedom is threatened, I pirate.
If someone pirates due to lack of money and one day they have enough, I suggest keep pirating and donate to FOSS and pay to individual creators.
