A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don’t see it. I have mine blocked from dialing home, receiving updates and autoplays have long been turned off.
Good for you. It does not change my point though that a device which can stream media having ads not really has anything to do with more piracy.
Sure it does. As a pirate I’ve chosen to disable the device’s ability to connect to Amazon to annoy me with ads, and pirate the content they’d usually serve me instead of subscribing to anything. Not that hard to understand. If I could find a way to uninstall all the Amazon apps, I would.
Did you pirate the TV? No, this actually has nothing to do with piracy. What's hard to understand.
Unbelievable that you could miss the point this much and still ask "what's hard to understand" lmfao
Evidently it’s too complicated for you.
I didn’t pirate my computer either, but almost all the content on it is.
Also, the original comment I responded to said “and still have to see this shit.” I don’t, because of piracy strats.
Lmao autist
