Shut up. Stop making every thread about your piracy agenda. Nobody cares. And this isn’t even remotely related to the topic in this case. Apparently you don’t even know what Roku is.
Just take it elsewhere. I’m tired of seing the same comment about piracy on 75% of my threads recently. You don’t need to tell us you do piracy. You’re not actually on a mission. You can cope elsewhere.
Then you don’t know what Roku is either. Because it’s definitely a steaming service, too.
For example, they got the exclusive on Weird Al Yankovic’s “Weird”. I watched that on Roku. The first time. But I found the ads so grating that I pirated it so I could rewatch it without the annoyance.
It really doesn’t… Beyond the active “pirates” who would tell you to fuck off are the many MANY regular folks sympathetic to the cause. You live in a fantasy world where everyone else is as much of a tattletale pig boy as you are, friend. Especially on a thing like Lemmy, where the average user is an elder millennial, we all at e very least dipped our toes in e seven seas sorting the Napster/Kazaa days.i
You live on an island, friend. And nobody wants to visit you there.
Everyone has pirated something when they were 15. I’m still pirating stuff sometimes to this day. But I don’t see it as my mission to spread it like a political agenda on every thread on the internet. Literally copy-paste without context. What’s the point of doing this? It’s really annoying especially when phrased so arrogantly, like it’s the only right thing to do and everyone should pirate because it’s some kind of political protest against big-tech or something. It’s all just bullshit coming from people who don’t want to pay but feel guilty about it, so instead of just admitting that they don’t want to pay they perform some moral gymnastics to rationalise their behaviour and keep the cognitive dissonance at bay. Just do your thing and let everyone do theirs.
Dude it is a protest against big tech. If companies were genuine and altrustic and stopped dunking their balls where it doesnt belong we wouldnt have so many problems in this world. So fuck em and fuck you
You don’t get it… Your logic is flawed. By pirating, you support the current business practices. You encourage them to do more of it. Piracy is the worst kind of protest.
Let me explain: When everyone who disagrees with how big tech make profits leaves to do piracy, then the only people who are left paying are the people that suppport big-tech or don’t care. Consequently the exact thing you’re ‘protesting’ against becomes the most profitable and only way to make money. Guess where that leads the industry…
The only way of protest is with your money. Spend it on good alternatives so they become the next profitable thing.
“You don’t give me exactly what I want, so now I have the moral right to do whatever I want for as long as I please and I even do something good for humanity in the process”. Real altruism that is… In reality, this is only a justification to get shit for free. Just admit it and say it as it actually is. Also, stop spamming your agenda all over every thread.
This is one of the many reasons why you should be your own streaming service. 🏴☠️

You know what would make you less mad? Watching less ads. You know you could do that? Piracy.
I can do that without piracy aswell.
But this is still totally off-topic as you cannot pirate Roku. It’s a device. Not a streaming service.

say what you will, but piracy ensures that my copy of Brokeback Mountain will never be taken from me again.
👢👅
I wish I could, but I didn’t type it.
Nobody decent shares your opinion. Shut your mouth and sit on your hands.
Pirates are a vocal minority. The majority does in fact share my opinion.
