So, do any pirates here have a grasp in what this asshole feels towards piracy in general? Should we be worried? I’m worried he’ll install an FCC that’ll work against internet rights, that’s one concern.
I’d like to hear what thoughts you have.
I for one welcome the new piracy arms race, every time someone tries to stop piracy, piracy gets easier and more efficient.
He’ll do whatever makes his buddies the most money.
Even if it’s not directly related to piracy, he will try to censor the internet in ways that will harm your possibilities of consuming pirated content.
Get a vpn. From a country that doesn’t make part of the 14 eyes, with real no-logs policy and, if possible, that accepts cash, crypto or prepaid cards. Ditch windows too.
PSA: all women in Trumpistan should be especially very mindful of state-level surveillance of their internet use, whether or not they pirate stuff. But this is also good advice for all pirates.
Everything will be fine unless someone shows him an active torrent of The Apprentice and explains he doesn’t get paid residuals if people watch it that way.
is he paid residuals for theater and streaming sales? 🤮 if so, this would be a great reason to pirate it.
I don’t think he’s been vocal one way or another about piracy, but i wouldn’t be surprised if he appointed a fresh group of jackoffs with something to prove
I doubt he knows what it is but at least one of his fascist collaborators probably do.
Well he’s going to make it nigh-impossible to afford electronic equipment or compute power.
Piracy may be fine, but the tools that facilitate it will be broken.
Get what you can now, and embrace the return to sneakernets.
Probably not too much so his big tech friends can scrape all data they need.
oh yeah, it’s all gone, he’s for the oligarch media owners, expect pirate sites to be nuked across the board, expect internet access to be 10x more expensive, expect vpn’s to be curtailed if not outlawed outright. it’s the end of all things. this is no hyperbole.
Eh, not necessarily. Hollywood hates piracy and Trump hates Hollywood, it might actually be as simple as that.
Worry is the worst use of imagination. The latter can take you all sorts of places, whereas the former is more of a rocking chair: misleadingly distracting but essentially stationary. 🙇🏽♂️
