Our tax dollars are subsidising hollywood and AAA video games. We already paid for them
but just my personal advice. Don't pirate your OS and don't pirate security software, that shit needs to run exactly right and cracked versions could have all kinds of things hidden inside of them
Windows and Linux are both free and MacOS coames pre-installed in custom made hardware, so I don't know who would pirate an OS anymore. I'm with you on security software though.
those who don't know what they're doing, but some are still doing it so good point
windows isn't free, but you can get OEM keys for super cheap if you look up where to buy on brave search
Okay, I warned you
nothing wrong...as far as you've seen. Modern malware is silent and doesn't make its self known.
