- dspillett 10y agoThe skills are general and could be applied to other tasks, the device is very specifically being sold for an illegal task (even if the seller is being shady about telling the buyer the legal implications). Also Kodi itself is not illegal, so someone teaching you to install Kodi and its plugins generally is different to someone teaching how to install (or doing for you) Kodi and anti-anti-piracy measures.
- mindslight 10y agoEducating someone to do it is more abstract and removed, just like selling these devices compared direct filesharing. Now that they routinely persecute filesharing, the ratchet moves forward to go after these devices. After they're well criminalized, they'll work on criminalizing spreading knowledge next.
