  • There are a lot of really shit takes, and the article mentions one of them. “If someone is going to pirate they had no intention of buying it in the first place.” Point me to the location where I can buy it legally in my language, you prick. Can’t? Then get the fuck out of here with your bad faith dribble.

    Yes, people should be compensated for their work, but if their work is never going to be available in a region then any distribution in that region is not a loss of revenue or profit, especially when said distribution costs literally nothing. You are confusing missed opportunity with materialized profit.

    This is the cost of releasing content that is not universal. You need to accept the fact that if you are not going to service a population, someone else will.

    The fact they changed the headline is itself praiseworthy, but the fact it was click bait and sensationalist to begin counters it.

    The point about making the older stuff cheaper is something that isn’t mentioned as much as it should be in these debates.

    Ultimately even if the older stuff is worse and requires more attention and monitoring (less convenient), it is still better than nothing.





  • I wouldn’t go so far as to say it is a surefire sign they are circling the drain, but I would agree the RTO mandates are vanity decisions. If not the vanity angle it screams that the leadership does not trust their employees or they don’t want to invest in the architecture required to make WFH feasible.

    Realistically the mandates are due to tax breaks that the company gets for having a certain number of seats filled each day since these employees have a chance at fueling the local economy by eating out or getting gas.

    Either way it is a bad look.
