In what appears to be an escalating incursion into a user’s digital privacy, a collective of film companies continue to implore the court to compel Reddit to surrender its users’ personal details. This move is part of an ongoing piracy liability case against Internet Service Providers. Reddit, however, steadfastly resists, staunchly defending its users’ rights to anonymous speech.
Wait, is it even possible to pay for movies outside of a movie theater?? I have taught everyone I know how to use bittorrent because I assumed that was a basic computer literacy thing. My grandma regularly pirates TV shows so they have something to watch at her adult daycare. That old bitch even offers DVD copies for a buck fifty.
You buy the DVDs.
Hope you also taught them to use a VPN.
Okay, I see this so much, but I have been
pirating virtually all of my mediadownloading Linux ISOs (in the US) without a VPN for… 20 years?I’ve gotten about a dozen letters from my ISP and I just chuck ‘‘em in a bin.
Depending on the ISP your service can be terminated for pirating. VPNs are cheap enough where you might as well just use one
What’s a cheap good VPN for someone in the US?
I’m using surfshark, I got it a 3 year subscription on a discount a while back. On reddit they had r/vpndeals if I remember right, that was a good source to find discounts. Not sure if there’s a similar community here on Lemmy
