LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don't get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive "privacy policy" - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO..

I bet we'll reach a point again where normal services are just so shit that piracy is normal again. Then they'll try and take down even more things. Hopefully then we'll decide to move operations to I2P.

I wonder what happened in those four years that gave people a lot of time to watch movies but not a lot of money to pay for them 🤔

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Literally every single time I want to watch any specific movie it's not on any streaming service without buying or renting, and I don't mean new or recent movies. So yeah, I'm pirating again.
