Even if specifically so it doesn’t make it to their legal department.

They’ll never stop us. That’s just a circle jerk fantasy of the corpos. May the seas be fair, the wind breezy and the grog plentiful 🏴‍☠️

Since fin has already provided a decent answer, I’ll just say never underestimate how much some people do with CLI. For those who’ve memorised every command they need CLI is quicker than a high DPI setting and a twitchy wrist on a mouse.

This has got to be Blue from Overly Sarcastic Productions, right?

Now that The Grand Tour is dead, thess tossers aren’t producing anything worth pirating in my opinion anyway.

Particularly after a country publicly illigitimately arrested the CEO of said messenger.

Is this project dead? The github link gives back a 404.

And there’s the sad truth of it. Best we can do is those few of us who care enough to be educated do our best to make what we do hurt those scum suckers where it hurts them the most.

Sadly a lot of young people are taught nothing but convenience and ignorance. I’m the only one in any of my friend circles that says anything against these practices. All of my friends, from different walks of life just shrug me off.

People need education.

We’ll keep wondering cause the shift to digital clearly isn’t stopping piracy.

Hardware theft is on the menu today, boys.

Context clues would suggest it has something to do with piracy. One way to find out…

Not to my knowledge. They try to subpoena VPNs to give up client logs though. The good ones tell them where to shove it.

Fair enough. Thanks for the clarity.

Oh, was that it? I’d heard someone had hacked the EL Twitter account. That’s even dumber. Thanks for the correction and highlighting how much dumber the fallout was, luckily my misunderstanding didn’t take away from the main point.

In regards to how precedent can fuck over future decisions, could this now cause issues for libraries in the future?

It certainly sounds like it should be more difficult than that (and as far as I, a non-medical professional, know it is) but keep in mind the pharmaceutical industry is worth billions to a select few, and keep in mind back when Eli Lilly’s Twitter was hacked and posted insulin, a substance that costing some people over $1000/month just to live, would be free, their stock dropped 4.37% the next day.

Like I said, I’m no medical anything but like with previous products that have claimed to be medically beneficial, I think it’s worth at least taking a step back and looking at what someone stands to gain by claiming something vital is simple versus what those who claim otherwise stand to lose.

After all, I think we’ve all heard the story of the doctor who, in a fit of desperation, cured his wife’s cancer with bicarbonate of soda and then did so with more of his patients before being sued by Big Pharma.
