Because it is. Who wants to pay $120 a month on streaming services you barely use?
The world has left everything on the shelf in full public view and access for anyone to take. Everything is based on a system of trust where we willingly pay for things and take what’s on the shelf, knowing full well that we could just take the thing off the shelf and walk away without paying. We all trust one another to be fair and do the right thing … and for the most part, the majority of everyone agrees with that.
Unfortunately, some asshats decided that it was a good idea to make everything expensive or to nickel and dime everyone to death … most people especially young people just get so pissed off because they can afford fewer and fewer things that they decide that the system of trust is no longer working or worth it.
So they just take the things off the shelf and tell the asshats to go fuck themselves.
You can never destroy the Viking spirit!
heh. fr tho, I think this is more about the political climate in Norway than any sort of national identity. I doubt anyone in the states would openly admit to piracy, even if it was an anonymous survey. I think there’s a psych term for that, but I forget it; has to do with fear of retribution when answering questions honestly.
There’s a biological term for it: self-preservation.
Seriously though, media copyrights holders and associations like RIAA and MPAA can go fuck themselves. They spit in the face of public domain and their idea of “restitution” would probably include lethal injection if were an option.
Seems a bit low lol
The other half needs a bit of education on the topic.
Fuck corporate parasites. Either provide the service or get fucked.
TIL I’m half a young norwegian
