@GhostOnTheHalfShell sadly that "#freedom" isn't extended to #consumers!

• Which is IMHO bad [not questioning the fact that #WastefulComputing = #bad!] because it means that only rich Media Oligopolies have access to "#justice" and can enforce their rights.
  • And that is even more worse, because that'll only fuck over those #artists and #creatives that don't have the money to legally 'curbstomp' people at the slightest chance.

Not to mention the most brazen #Copyrightmafia Members (#Disney) are openly embracing #AIslop content.

• Completely negating their own claims that they want to 'protect artists and make shure they get their deserved payment'...

Greedy execs should choke on #DRM and the #Enshittification whilst being sued into insolvency by the #artists, #production crews and #consumers they fucked over!

It's just so fucking tiring, not to mention there is hardly any good content worth paying for on #Streaming or even #TV.

• Shure @arte / #arte does good stuff and I tend to check in on @dw_innovation / #DWnews and their original content, but aside from some show like #MrRobot or #CyberSix I don't even want to track down a physical copy.
  • In the past I did more often import stuff like #DoctorWho for friends (because pre-#Brexit #UK made that easy and convenient and being 18+ doesn't cause issues with unrated content...

I'm happily paying full price for good tickets at a theater (instead of asking friends who come along if they can save a Euro or two with their Student Discount) because I believe #artists should not merely survive but thrive and be rewarded for their efforts.

• And I think positive incentives are always good. I want good things and since we live under #capitalism, "Money (or rather the reciept of every transaction) is my ballout - EVERY SINGLE TIME!"

And I'm not even gonna pirate shit as a matter of principle!

• Not for [the obviously] legal reasons...
