I want to point out something. Illegally downloading movies is not only stealing but it is a violation of a just law. We are obligated to obey all just laws. It is a sin to not obey a just law.

Completely true and I agree with you from a moral point of view. Morally, it is wrong.

However, I disagree with the assertation that it costs them money on a 1:1 ratio. That’s my point.

Excellent point. However by definition, just, means based on or behaving according to what is morally right and “fair”.

In my situation if I’m legitimately subscribing to a US-based service and just location shifting my personal enjoyment with no other available option here (and please note ALSO watching in the intended English language which is what I’m paying for). How is this not obeying a just law?

We used to live in Connecticut where until this year it was illegal to buy alcohol on Sundays or after 8PM (unless of course it was at a bar or restaurant). We were having a party and I was forced to buy some wine from a neighbor one evening. Illegally purchasing alcohol from someone without a valid liquor license during a prohibited time. Just another example - definitely forgot to mention this in confession 🙂
