Pirated and OS software are different things, obviously. But would you prefer one over the other? I’m thinking of switching to both OS software AND pirated software. Just want opinions and tips from this community.

    This is the way. The same goes for media too. Look at the state of streaming services, DRM, and digital storefronts, it’s a shitshow

      What’s hilarious is, Netflix damn near killed piracy completely. Until every single network decided to do it themselves.

      They forgot the most important part of piracy. Access.

      I am NOT paying for your entire streaming service if I want to watch a movie.

      Not to mention, a LOT of older movies should be in the public domain by now, and therefore free to watch. But nope, in fact, many older movies are simply gone. Never to be seen again.
