i’m not blaming other pirates for anything. What i’m saying is there are consequences for some things. For example, many things are not acted upon because corporations and governments arent aware of them.

Companies like Valve and Nintendo are absolutely aware of piracy and exploits in their systems, to assume they are not is extremely naive, and is one of the basis for people blaming pirates. The ignorant and incorrect idea that they don’t know and that piracy being popular makes them aware is the primary reason for hostility and gatekeeping in the piracy community. Ironically it actually hurts preservation efforts by making content less available to people.

Or some things are just ignored because its cheaper for them to do nothing about it than act.

That’s not really a thing either, if it were they’d ignore piracy almost completely and let people just buy games as they normally do, it’s cheaper and easier for them to do nothing, rather than waste money with copyright trolling. So this really isn’t a good argument.

Don’t you see the necessity of trying to manage how corporations might respond?

I’ve explained how their reactions to ““abuse”” are largely an excuse already so I’ll just say this. It isn’t worth it to try and play 4D chess with companies like this because at the end of the day they’re cheating at it. Even if you were able to get no one to use any kind of exploit in Family sharing or similar courtesy projects these companies do to foster goodwill, you’d find that in the end they would still choose to discontinue or neuter it because of ““abuse”” and that people will be said that “people abusing it ruin it for everyone” because that fostering of goodwill does wonders fro boosting credibility and getting people to believe their greed motivated lies.
