Not everyday i agree with ISPs but here we are. Guilty of and accused of are two very different things. Innocent until proven guilty.
Hell, I don't even want to ban users guilty of piracy. Oh no! Sony and it's BILLIONS of dollars will surely be affected by pirating their dvd of a movie! Heavens to betsy!
You joke but that's how Sony feels when you buy a used DVD... They just can't admit it publicly
They must HATE me......There's a thrift shop just up the street from me. I bought Deadpool on DVD/Bluray combo pack. Still sealed new from factory, for $2.50.
I buy lots of DVDs there. My sisters say my collection is rediculous. She means it in a bad way, like I need to get rid of some stuff. But hell, when it's $2.50, why NOT buy like 20 movies in an afternoon? And why NOT do that same thing several times a year? Although I will admit I'm running out of room......help! My apartment is filled with DVDs, and I can't see the walls anymore!
I aspire to be like you! I finally am going to have a DVD player and I am absolutely THRILLED. No joke. It's going to be fantastic.
Not as fantastic as an old VCR since it's like 2% harder to fast forward through the ads. But pretty close!
....you wanna come over and watch ghostbusters?
Absolutely!
Next step: rip them all to a NAS and install something like Jellyfin. That way you can enjoy all of that content, but without having to swap discs.
That's what I did, and now everything sits in a box hidden away somewhere in case my NAS dies or something.
Yeah, if someone shoplifts from a store, the punishment/penalty should not involve confiscating the car they drove to the store, lol.
Not for potato supreme. I'm sure labels and sony bought vacations for those sub human coup supporting shits
Never dehumanize fascists or fascist-sympathizers (redundant but ok), it's always important to remember that bad faith actors or their stooges are human and cannot be entirely eliminated from society, which is why people that fight for positive change have to set the rules such that bad faith actors' actions are either quickly recognized and mitigated, or have society structured such that even those motivated solely by unempathetic selfishness can only achieve status by masking and contributing positively anyway.
I am not familiar with that, I'm guessing potato supreme is a username or something?
It's an Idaho-exclusive new dish at Taco Bell.
Well it sounds delicious, and definitely not guilty of piracy
No, of course not. Piracy would sour the cream.
Probably a delicious baked potato dish. Not sure whether cheesy potatoes really care if you're guilty of piracy, they just want to be eaten.
