DRM being forced into freeview TV seems like a contradiction in terms, and yet here we are.

They fit your pockets, but they're just as bad in the hand as any large phone is.

So phones have gotten so big they nessecitate a whole new type of clothing to carry around. Maybe, just maybe, the solution is a smaller phone?

I doubt many people 'remember' this to any significant extent, but there are probably many cases of media giving the 'wrong' vibe with a new release, and you just assume it's because you've gotten older, but th

There are regulations on water usage for dishwashers. That purge would eat into its water usage. Yes, purging the cold water manually does exactly the same thing. We live in a flawed world.

But the true link speed's not even what's being asked for. 4K Netflix never goes above 20 Mbps as far as I know, so getting just 1/50 the advertised speed to one of the most well-known internet services in existence, hardly s

Surely there's a reasonable expectation that Netflix would work at decent speeds, especially given that Netflix's infrastructure, nor the network load as a whole are to blame, but rather the specific ISP bureaucracy? Getting 1&#x2

Patrick Breyer has some good thoughts on this.[1] The relevant points I believe to be: > All citizens are placed under suspicion, without cause, of possibly having committed a crime. Text and photo filters monitor all messages, without e

And yet they wanted to push a proposal where the government would have free access to all digital communication, no judge required. So if it happens through a telephone conversation, you need a judge, while with a digital message, you would

Why aren't we (society) fining Meta et cetera for collaborating in scams again? Or at least having the fines actually be equal to the money they're earning so the fines aren't just cost of business?

Given that identity fraud leads directly into what is functionally actual theft (taking money out of you bank account or taking up loans in your name and scarpering), there's no wonder the term's confused. Doesn't make it the

I should really be able to recognise that by now. This is exactly the kind of discussion that has burned me out on using certain platforms before. Thanks for putting it in plain text.

The music market clearly still exists. There's no reason to believe that the movie market will cease to exist.

A pretty big part of theft is the victim no longer having whatever is stolen. When I steal your car, phone, bike or milk, you no longer have it, and no longer enjoy the benefit of it. I'm fairly certain that's the part of theft mo

The goto options that are commonly recommended locally to me both have 40k+ channels, and if that doesn't include damn near every TV channel in existence that's still running, I'd be surprised. I'd imagine the IPTV pirat

If you can't earn a living by creating music, then don't. If you can't earn a living by creating movies, then don't. If you can't make money writing books about the intricacies of Unix system calls, then don't.

The other large factor is copyright. If we had 21 year copyright terms for shows and movies, I'd imagine someone would have set up a streaming service with every show and movie under the sun that they could fit into that, and people wo

You have to go pretty far out there to find shows and movies that aren't on public trackers. I definitely can find gaps if I go looking for them, especially if we start counting not finding a blu-ray rip while a DVD rip is easily found

Yes. Although there are some gaps, you have to go fairly far out there to find them. Most everything is on every music streaming platform. The music industry got that memo after MP3 piracy became rampant. But the video streaming platforms h

The illegal bushiness apparently has incentives to keep their customers, while the legal ones rest on their legal monopoly-laurels. I'd imagine if we had a market where every service had access to every piece of content, so no exclusiv
