    Want to know what I used to pirate, but don’t anymore? Video games. Steam makes tons of money off of me and everybody else and has reasonable DRM with an easy to use store.

    Piracy is a delivery problem. Make content easier to get for reasonable prices and you’ll make money. Don’t do that? OK. Piracy it is.

      Worse, the harder they try to stop it, the shittier the experience gets for their paying customers, but not for the pirates really. At that point, why would anyone want to pay for a crappy experience being treated like a thief when you can save your money and actually be a “thief” (at least in their eyes) while being treated like a paying customer?

    Even the most casual of internet users will see the guide on how to change their DNS server bruh.

    Next they’ll do DNS injection even though DoT and DNS over HTTPS is a thing.
