Study finds anti-piracy messages backfire, especially for men

  • Some of the most unruly people I've ever known are women. I think women just emphasize better and with media from a connection to those who are in or made the media.

    • California Bill Would Require Landlords to Accept Pets

  • Wait why wouldn't they? People piss and shit and if you damage a rental with it, you're billed for it. I feel like you're very angry about a problem you made up.

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

    Jump

  • It's clear words are just vibes to you

    • The Fairphone 5 is less about what comes in the box and more about what you get over the years

    Jump

  • And I'm saying they need to have value other than ethics to sell new phones because used are more ethical.

    Not making stuff is greener than making stuff.

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

  • They're literally different legal concepts just like speeding isn't murder.

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

  • I can own a DVD that's digital ownership.

    • The Fairphone 5 is less about what comes in the box and more about what you get over the years

    Jump

  • That's what my initial comment was about so if you're this far without knowing that it's pretty clear you're not reading very well.

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

    Jump

  • So if I enjoy a sunset it's theft because nobody got paid?

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

    Jump

  • Yes you did. You said if you buy something on steam you own it.

    • Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.

    Jump

  • No, it's trespassing and you could be arrested for it not stealing.

    Jump

  • Used phones are ethically better than new phones. That's a fact. If you buy used fairphones then that's even better but they make such a bad product you have to buy it on ethics alone. If you're buying on ethics then again, used is better.

    You're just spouting peak consumer copium and claiming it's a fact.

  • Copyright infringement (piracy) has never been theft. The statement about purchasing and ownership gives ground to see creating more of something to be the same as taking something.

    Plus you don't own games on steam, you've purchased a license. If you owned them you could resell them.

    • Capital One to acquire Discover Financial Services in $35.3 billion all-stock deal

    Jump

  • Because antitrust is bad for the stock market and politicians are heavily invested in the stock market.

    • TIL that the white stuff that sometimes appears on chocolate is called "chocolate bloom".

  • This initialization took me way too long

  • I've listed facts here. But every time you come up with an excuse to consume more product.

    It's not like I'm recommending a specific brand and they're actually some of the most common but you will always justify buying shit you don't need.

    You are simping for a private company that exploits labor just so you can feel better about buying another new phone instead of used.

  • Do they pay you to "yeah but" for them or are you just a simp?

    • reasonable

  • I didn't see many memes about Swift's plane usage till she threatened the kid tracking her flights. If that's not just me, then she deserves it for making a stink about publicly available information.

  • But iPhones get long support, pixels now get 7, and S24 get 7.

    Fairphone themselves even admits they can't fix everything in production so a phone that was about to be waste is more fair.

    If they built their phones in Germany or something I could accept the price but they're made in China where labor standards aren't exactly great.

  • I mostly can't get over paying more for worse specs. It doesn't have to feel bad now but with 8 years of support it could very easily not feel good in the future. It's a $760 phone that benchmarks close to the Samsung A54 a $400 phone.

    The selling point is the ethical value of the phone but it'll never top how much waste buying a used phone saves.

  • I don't understand how manufacturing in Korea is better than China. Hell, I'd call that pretty centralized still because it still relies on the same logistical problems.
