I don’t disagree, but these weren’t paying customers
My point was that making life harder for non paying customers doesn't negate the fact that they make life harder for paying customers.
A bootlicker wouldn't understand this
Yeah. I legally owned most of the seasons of South Park. Then their parent company was sold to whoever owns Paramount+ and I can't legally buy seasons anymore. I have to subscribe to Paramount+ instead. I'm just gonna pirate that shit.
Not to mention some episodes ended up banned. I don't remember the season, but there was an episode where Kyle joined a cult and the super rescue team was composed of Buddha, Jesus, Mohammed and some other religious figures.
There's also the Hollywood celebrities episode. Tom Cruise is canonically in space in South Park. You just wouldn't really know why unless you saw the banned episodes.
Correct they were non paying customer who were dissatisfied with the quality of service
They voted with their feet!
Instead of being an idiot and funding your enemy, they took direct action.
They deserve our respect and support
I never said anything critical of the users, I just thought the OP might have missed that detail. I pirate stuff sometimes when it’s not easy or reasonably priced to buy.
