i think there are bigger things to worry about

I think hot dogs are good test subjects

good bot

that announcement is also a buch of horsecrap

Also as long as no illegal content is shared, but is only referred to, there isn’t really anything illegal about it right?

what how? I’ve been using qbittorrent for a while and I never noticed that

You know you can use Spotify for free right?

Ever heard of Spotify?

Yes I have Spotify. I don’t pay for it though. I don’t see why I would.

audiophiles that buy vinyl, CDs, etc.

Of course but that’s besides the point, because OP was talking about paying for music without actually owning it.

inability to actually own the music I pay for

Do people still pay for music? How and, more importantly, why?

Games probably. If I’m browsing the store looking for new games, any games I’ve seen in ads will probably pique my interest more because I recognise them.

Same with food, movies, so many other things.

I support indie/small groups of devs who want some money for their work.

It’s just the rich companies I despise.

me neither I think? but it probably still subconsciously affects me

No I understand why websites show ads. I don’t understand why whenever I disable personal ads, I get a message saying “Are you really sure? If you disable this you won’t see your favourite ads anymore and only see ads for things you probably don’t want to buy. That’d be awful wouldn’t it?” and expect me to change my mind because that’s definitely not why I wanted to disable it in the first place.

They act as if people like to see ads because then they can buy stuff they think they want/need. And I’m getting afraid that’s actually true for a lot of people too.

From where comes the idea that personalised ads are good? I hate this timeline.

just imagine how dystopian our world would be if there was no EU

aww thats too bad…

what happened to rarbg

Wow, thanks for sharing this chunk of internet lore. I never torrented any games so I didn’t know there was so much more behind it than torrenting movies.

actually I’m just using the public dns so I don’t think I can do that

is this any better than adguard dns or just similar?
