The email arrived late last year, a harbinger of a new era. Disney+ was jacking up their annual plan to a whopping $140. It wasn't an isolated incident. Netflix announced their cheapest tier would now come bundled with ads, Amazon Prime would be $3, TV went from $66.99 to $999 a month there are so many great things to watch and they're all spread across so many different Services. I want to watch them all but man does it hurt to Fork up so much money every month to do it it kind of makes you won
Man, I WISH piracy WAS theft.
I wish that if I were to go pirate, idk, Debbie Does Dallas, that the physical copies would just disappear. The people who made that movie wish it too, cuz that could have saved their copyright, and their copyright case is the reason this 70s porno is now forever entrenched and sealed into the an(n)als of US law history.
That’s a true story, hilariously enough, if anyones looking for a spicy rabbit hole to jump into. It’s relevancy here is used as juxtaposition to the inanity of copyright law and the chuckleheads who leverage themselves lifestyles from the creations of other people.
“yOu WoUlDnT dOwNlOaD a CaR wOuLd YoU?”
Motherfucker if you could download a car, everyone would fucking do it. EVERYONE. That’s tangentially proven by the proliferation of ghost guns. The ONLY benefit of Ghost guns is it forced law enforcement to admit it’s impossible to trace a round back to an individual gun, CUZ ANY AMOUNT OF TIME THINKING ON IT AND OF COURSE THATS IMPOSSIBLE. Shit don’t get stamped on the way out, and theres no apple tag embedded into the shotgun shell or slug, yet, anyways (excluding hypothetical bespoke and bedazzled independent pressing).
Sorry, I just REALLY hate being led on or lied to by anyone, but 1000x by anyone entrusted with authority. I’m 100% totally fine with the breaking of public trust being dealt with by firing squad.
