  • When it's a student saying he had to pirate books to study or a poor kid who pirated a Nintendo game, the law and the Buttlicks always condemn them. But if it's Elon or Mark doing something similar, it's all good and everything is fine! If there's one thing that fiction and reality have in common, it's that rich people can do almost anything without consequences.

    Can someone explain to me this thing about YouTube implementing DRM in their videos and how it works?

    I know about DRM from games and how it's a plague these days but I've heard a rumor that it would be implemented in videos, so how will this work if it comes to fruition?

    Dumb question but if I download a movie from YouTube do I get "that kind message" from my ISP?

    I know YouTube is a terrible provider of pirated content and also that it is almost impossible to pirate without a VPN, but I would like to know: if I download a movie from YouTube (directly from it, of course) without a VPN, will I receive "that type of message" from my ISP?

    where can i get a windows 10 (or even 11) ISO?

    Preferably from 2020 onwards and without the need for a mandatory product key/Microsoft account, I've already had a lot of headaches because of these two "casualities"!

  • Tell me what's better: a 21st century hammer or a stone-aged one? Do you prefer a cell phone or an old phone? It's not about being "old", it's about usefulness or how useful you actually find it. We've been riding horses for hundreds of years, and they're still useful, even though cars have taken over the planet, and we've ditched black/white TVs for better ones with colors.

  • Good for you but I'm of the opinion that public domain nowadays is a bad joke of the cursed capitalist world we live in, if I wait to see something modern "for free" I'll be 150 years old and I won't even be able to see that Oppenheimer movie because of that stupid 95 year period of time... seriously, if the waiting period were 15/20 years I would make a genuine effort not to pirate but as I said above the public domain law is a joke and will continue to be...

    Do you think AI "things" like Midjourney or ChatGPT will have or are already having some kind of "piracy" around them?

    Of course, I'm not in favor of this "AI slop" that we're having in this century (although I admit that it has some good legitimate uses but greed always speaks louder) but I wonder if it will suffer some kind of piracy, if it is already suffering or people simple are not interested in "pirated AI"

    How do you handle "disable your adblock" type sites?

    I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn't bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid "disable your adblock" video, that infuriated me so much... I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn't find such unique catalogs on these sites.

  • Thank God we have torrents, but what makes me most sad about this is that many of these sites have unique catalogs that torrents don't have or that you can never get seeds from... being honest, I would 100% migrate to torrent if it didn't have this small big problem.

    Is DuckDuckGo/Bing still viable for piracy?

  • "It will also utilize image recognition to detect unauthorized use of manga and anime materials provided by publishers" If this somehow backfires and sites like CBR or TheGame fall victim to this, it will be very funny! but I hope this AI fails miserably!

  • Tell that to the blind people who still consume their games and still say with a nostalgic smile "I love Nintendo and I will continue to support them forever because it was part of my childhood!!!" Seriously, Nintendo can be mean everytime, it will still have people who non-ironically defend it.

  • all i can say is this is a very sad news and of course FUCK YOU MPA!!!! and a special fuck to Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, because they site stinks like cryptocurrency, fraud and corruption, I hope that one day hackers invade this site and can destroy it as much as they can as a form of revenge!

  • "And consoomers don’t want to make the hand that feeds them angry" oh god this is so true. I see a lot of youtubers/bloggers who act on this statement, and it really pisses me off... they can't even mention "piracy" without saying it's illegal within the first few seconds of mentioning it, many of these people I feel have already sold their souls to big corporations and others I feel live like they have a gun pointed at them, and so they can only say what is "allowed" and nothing more.

    Why do anti-piracy people often treat us as the "villains" of the story?

    75% of the anti-piracy discussions I see rarely blame companies like Nintendo or Disney and always try to talk about how piracy is immoral, and you should feel "dirty" for doing it. My question is why do people seem to hate those who pirate more than the bad practices of mega-corporations or the fact that they don't want to preserve their media?

  • Without seeds, torrents become almost useless, and many pirate sites offer rare and hard-to-find movies/animes whose torrent versions never download because their seeds are practically extinct forever. So I don't think this is a weak complaint. If torrents didn't have this weakness I would always choose to use them but...
