I couldn't agree more with the pirate's side of the argument here. Morals exist to serve humans and help humans get along together. Modern, major corporations are sufficiently abstracted from actual human society that "hurting" them in this small way *absolutely does not* translate into hurting a fellow human.

It (a) hurts the company only, and (b) in such a small way that they can't feel it. Companies do not feel compassion or have morals. They do whatever they can get away with to make money (which is what they're supposed to do.) I treat them the same way.
