They’re against censorship and in favor of free speech. If you hear about a VPN provider that blocks their users’ access to certain things based on the owner’s political beliefs that’s a shitty VPN provider

Full disclosure. I’m not a fan of Trump. I’m just a free speech absolutist and even if I hate what someone has to say I think they should be allowed to say it.

There’s already laws against threats, slander and libel and even doxing in some places.

How do you define “wealthy”?

Stealing from a millionaire that actually operates his or her own business is not the same thing as stealing from someone like Jeff Bezos who doesn’t lift a fucking finger to contribute to the operation of the dozen or so businesses he owns.

You have to have nuance. Not everything is as simple as you made it sound.

And of course, they did go out of business. That’s why they need welfare from the government now.

You should never pirate anything, that would be bad.

There are people who understand what I’m saying, and then there’s the idiots that downvoted me on some of the comments I posted

physical media is a physical finite item. digital media can be copied infinitely

the reason why physical media is getting harder and harder to find is because the copyright nazis can’t control it. If they want to memory-hole a scene, they can’t change the content of that blu-ray disc with the original version on it

PIRACY IS WRONG AND IMMORAL! YOU SHOULD NEVER PIRATE ANYTHING! FRIENDS DON’T LET FRIENDS PIRATE THINGS!

Stealing a physical item from a giant corporate store is also always morally acceptable.

not really, it makes the store lock everything up behind plexiglass creating more friction for paying customers too.

Of course, theft wouldn’t happen nearly as much if no one was desperate the survive, but even then there’d still be entitled assholes that want even more.

I mean…if the movie is good you should support it. Vote with your wallet.

the DMCA doesn’t protect the artists or any of the singers, it protects the shitty record labels and the money that the executives at those companies get

is this series made by the creator(s) of fairy tail?

That guy in the middle looks like Natsu

And the blonde on the left looks a lot like Lucy

many instances of piped and invidious won’t accept your connection if you’re not logged in with an account there. and now a lot of age-restricted videos on youtube won’t play through an alternative front end at all.

I have ways of virtuallizing multiple instances of the same stuff, I can just copypaste a youtube link into another instance of my browser full of userscripts for bypassing all of google’s garbage.

it sucks, a lot of things need to be fixed

where’s the invidious or piped video link?

Think about how many times the copyright nazis have tried to crack down on piracy and then imagine how much good that kind of effort could do if they set up sting operations to catch pedos

Have you seen how fast and sleek 460 magnum is? 500 magnum was the “stupidly big” one, 460 was the one that they put a lot of science into

Much like the 50BMG in contrast to the 408 cheytac

Anything to the effect of “this ring isn’t expensive enough” is the only reason you need to never marry that person.

The elf should be using something with an insane amount of stopping power, like a 408 cheytac, or a 460 magnum.

something that screams out of the barrel and penetrates straight through any enemy armored or otherwise.

maybe even one of those new 17 caliber bullets that they put inside of the shell from a .556

that tracks, assuming you skip all the filler, intros and outros.

there’s no excuse for making a bad pizza. It’s pizza, it’s very hard to do it wrong
