What are you pirating from your internet service provider? Or does ISP stand for something else I'm not aware off?
I'm assuming he means pirating while using the service of a large or small ISP
Yeah, sometimes the pedants of Lemmy get a bit grating (I'm guilty of it myself). Most people were able to understand that OP was asking whether smaller or larger internet service providers are easier to use for piracy without detection. Most who didn't get that context scrolled past.
That being said... OP's replies are hilarious LMFAO wtf is that shit
To be fair, "from" is not grammatically incorrect here, it just sounds weird to a native speaker.
If you read "from" as in "I come from Georgia," rather than as, "I got peaches from Georgia," then it makes sense.
Think of it as saying like, "would it be better to fly to Europe from a small airport, or a large airport?"
I'm assuming you are a piece of shit then.
Get fucked.
So lame.
Nice alt, bruh.
Cringe...
Got em
I can see it. They got caught in your use of from, which isn't even incorrect. Via would have been a better word, but from works here just as well.
They're reading it as you're talking about pirating content that is owned by (from) your ISP, not what you meant, which is talking about pirating content from behind or via or even using your ISP. I guess through would have worked, too.
But the difference between me and them is, while I realise another word would have worked better, I understood exactly what you meant and didn't think it was an issue. Though I admit I thought the first thing... at first. Hey, it's early.
So let me get this straight.
You understand what pirating is, but you don't understand what ISP is? How do you breathe?
I do understand what an ISP is that's why I was confused how you would pirate from one. But it seems you just don't understand how grammar works.
