And after they've deported so many people who've come to the country to work hard and pay the taxes that American billionaires aren't, when employers can't find anyone to fill jobs, they'll just spin up the lie of young people not wanting to work, rather than recognize the contributions of hardworking immigrants to American society.
In the case of 1337x.to, the megathread lists 1377x.to as the fake replica of it. In terms of quality, 1337x.to is one of the best public torrent indexers.
While I personally prefer not to use YTS releases due to their low quality, and can't seem to find a legitimate YTS link that yts.mx would be the replica of, as long as you're downloading via Prowlarr rather than going to the website itself, the only risk is the trustworthiness of the releases, rather than the possibility of ads or otherwise unwanted links on the website itself.
If you're the one paying for internet access, you should also have the right to determine the content that you're paying to have access to. While something like pi hole could be used to metaphorically take down most of the billboards without impacting the ground below it, even everyday users should be informed about the data advertisers are getting from them, whether it is anonymized or not.

Anything less than Ukraine regaining Crimea and the rest of its territory will not only be a loss for them, but would tell the Russian government that the West would rather appease them than let allow a conflict to escalate further. Appeasement didn't work on Hitler, and it won't work on Putin either.
Given the number of people in today's world that rely on social media instead of well-sourced (or better-sourced, at least) publications for 'reliable' sources, it's highly important to minimize the extent to which such platforms can be used to manipulate the outcomes of elections.
While it doesn't do live TV and doesn't work directly on an Apple TV, Real-Debrid is only $35 a year and is a relatively seamless Netflix replacement when used with Torrentio and Stremio.
Not enough users left Reddit after the blackout to either make a difference there or establish communities on Lemmy that are big enough to encourage people on the fence to switch over. To turn Lemmy into a viable alternative, we need to convince more Redditors to switch over by mentioning Lemmy in the right threads, making sure to explain features of Lemmy in terms of Reddit analogs to avoid the usual complaints of Lemmy being difficult to understand. Most people won't care, but the ones that do will be vital in bringing the userbase to the point where people will want to join Lemmy due to it having active communities rather than it just not being Reddit.
The number of active Denuvo crackers would say otherwise...
There are, but the roadblocks to installing Android derivatives on most Android phones would probably reduce the F-Droid install base by at least 90%.
