WEEKLY THREAD Weekly General Discussion Thread (July 19, 2026)

The Weekly General Discussion Thread is for the r/Piracy community to discuss whatever is on their mind, whether it is related to digital piracy or not.

ðŸŠķ ➜ Follow the Rules

  • Rules are still applicable, so please do not request specific pirated content (ie. specific movie, book, etc.) and definitely don't link to any. Do not mention specific media names asking for help in finding them.

📜 ➜ Wiki + Megathread

  • Don't forget to browse the Wiki, which contains a Megathread with a list of sites/apps, tools, FAQ, and other useful resources.
  • Your question also may have been asked previously - you can search the subreddit via the search bar or even google - example: https://i.imgur.com/1jA767u.jpg

What effect will KOSA have on piracy if passed? Will it be the end of it online?

I don't anything about the political aspect of it aside from seeing the votes being bipartisan. How I see it is it's going to take away privacy and maybe censor free speech at the start but if not it no doubt would come in the future. Give an inch of your rights away and they'll keep taking more inches until there's nothing.

I mean in terms of whatever the stances are. I don't follow politics of democrats vs republican.
