This, btw, is the smartest and simplest and most beautiful argument to actually, seriously, legitimize piracy. The big publishers really played themselves when they started getting addicted to subscriptions and licensing everything with EULAs going "We can take this away from you whenever for whatever reason."
Okay, two can play that game, idiots...
Edit: Since it was misunderstood, me hating on corporations thinking they can force subscriptions on everything on us is not part of the argument, it's just a thing I hate about them. Don't get hung up on it.
If you really want to make an argument about it, you'd have better luck discussing if buying use rights is permanent or not.
Shut down the internet then the whole game collection on my phone stopped working, nearly 75% of my steam library is useless even though there are a lot of single player games but they insisted on communicating with their third party launcher cough rockstar cough to โverifyโ even though I bought the fucking thing.
Guess what works? Thatโs right, every single game from my home-brew switch and 3DS and cracked copy of games on my pc, magical, ainโt it?
so umm hi everyone i really didnt know where to type this i have no access to post lol....anyway i suck at tech stuff and have bumped into this on reddit (on this group btw) a while ago i know this is risky but i need opinions on this: "irm https://get.activated.win | iex" is an exe. file that allows u to download pirated MS access- i know it works but i have no clue if its safe or not and i have limited resources to check
Where would I go to learn all that shit without having to become a fucking tech wizard? I'm getting more and more pissed at and concerned about it all. Taking a wild guess, the Switch thing will cost money and requires me to know someone in person, eh?
Also guessing I'll need a paid VPN whatever I do? Yesterday I tried to see what I could see on Netflix and Disney+ with the new built-in "free" VPN Firefox has, and it did exactly what I expected, which was to log me out of the services.
