  • I never said they could or couldn't do anything. I specifically noted that people were giving up personal control in favour of pretend protection from things they themselves click on or search for then get mad about.

    This was never a conversation about what reddit was doing and was always a conversation about the overall ineptitude and immaturity of society these days

  • I can understand where you're coming from but it's not like the commenter lied. Both musk and trump have court cases involving sexual assault in various countries and our adversaries are getting one over on us because of the incompetence of every politician, not just left or right.

    Perhaps I am seeing it in a different light but it sure seemed to me like billionaire and politician bashing as opposed to 'orange man bashing'.

  • I said fairly based. The commenters preoccupation with the fascism connection was odd but the rest was pretty much on point for presenting a theory as to why the torrent had been removed and re-added. The commenter added additional commentary to present a parallel for what the torrent uploader was doing in order to obtain more public interest.

    In reference to your last line, you realize that the vast majority of the political sector is financially vested in 'taking action' against piracy, right? And by financially vested I obviously mean bribed by corps like MGM or UMG et al.

  • So, I don't think you're wrong but I think there was another way to do this.

    A live example is the Deadpool game on steam. The original game is no longer available and cannot be purchased, bought, rented, or anything. However, if you bought it, you still have access to downloading it.

    The reason? The new deadpool IP shredded the contracts with the original game developers primarily because the voice actors weren't the ones everyone is now accustomed to (mostly ryan reynolds).

    Steam managed to allow the content owners to be able to download and install the game without any problems while also complying with the new terms surrounding the deadpool ip.

    This is primarily sony's fault, in my opinion, because they chose not to go to bat for their customer base and opted to fuck over their own customers. If they do not refund everyone for all the content then anything sony has ever made should be pirated by everyone from now on because it's clear that ownership no longer exists and if I can't own anything, then I also can't steal anything because clearly no one 'owns' it if even the people that paid for it cannot use it.

  • Can't wait to see what their reaction is going to be when they learn the effects of a land war on the environment.

    Sure don't see them demanding russia/hamas/isdf to fuck off and I can guarantee, from personal experience, that tanks, small arms, artillery and land mines, are NOT environmentally friendly, neither is literally anything else that's associated with the tank.
