Seems like a good time to short

‘Better to ask for forgiveness than permission’ attitude.

Shoshana Zuboff documents how Big Tech works this way. They do lots of illegal products like Google Streetview, then pay the fines and keept he product.

They’ve only arrested two of them; not sure they can find the other guy.

Nah, that doesn’t seem to be what they’re about.

It’s an accelerometer, thermometer etc. worn on the ear. Ear wearable.

Have you tried https://bt4gprx.com/

Also those streaming sites like yesmovies and moviesjoy often have things the public torrent trackers do not.

Lib Gen is fine.

The press reported it was dead a few months ago for some weird reason. Never believe what you read.

youtube ia fine for some use-cases, but ok.ru is a better site to upload this stuff to

I don’t think the issues you raise are valid.

It costs more than zero to levy a fine, but we are talking about many billions in income here. Your point would be valid if gathering staff and then fining Google 9 billion were a net zero. It isn’t.

We are likely better off having that money reinvested in preventing other companies from these practices.

Which is what I suggested. The best way to prevent these practices is libre alternatives.

Take some of that money you get fining surveillance-capitalists and use it to fund privacy-respecting libre alternatives

• Fined Facebook €1.2 billion in May 2023

• Fined Facebook €390 million in Jan 2023

• Fined Microsoft €561 million in March 2013

• “fined the company [Google] more than $9 billion for anticompetitive practices since 2017” (2019 article)

Pretty tricky. There’s essentially no way for the average pirate.

google sucks too so why aren’t they using the thing that sucks?

Why doesn’t youtube use DRM the way other Big Tech sites do?

Wow, impressive

What is cloudstream?
