Much appreciated.

Why though?

Am a middle eastern civilian, how do I enlist?

I love me some karma.

It's a half-pun about actual piracy. Not sure if illegal fishing is actually considered piracy, but that's the idea.

but I do think we should be wary of wanting it to be as quick as possible if we don’t want publishers to resort to machine translation (also known as A.I.).

For manga: if they provide a good way to read it in (human) English without region locking, there’s no real problem.

Add within a reasonable timeframe of publishing. Idk if this is a problem with manga but at least it's fucking ridiculous in light novels, where the English translation tends to be at least a year behind the original.

Slight correction: This is the case in the first world. In the third world (or at least in my country) it's very much an economic situation because 10 bucks is more than many families' electricity bill.

Why the fuck do they even do that?
