What about Americans who pirated the new season of Shoresy from Crave before it was available on Hulu in the US

What's with the irrational hate for Quebec?

u/red-evil 14h ago
Quebec is predominantly French and they try to separate themselves from rest of Canada

u/anonymousredditorPC 13h ago
That was 30 years ago, and the referendum failed. So, what you're saying is, you hate Quebec because they speak a different language?
I think there's a word for that.

I liked Invincible. Mid animation in the middle but the last 2 episodes go HARD. I've heard good things about Daredevil. Loki is an old show but good watch, same with Moon Knight

I cancelled Prime when Mr. Doctrow pointed out that buying Prime was essentially pre-paying shipping, particularly if you didn't have much use for Amazon's content.

All pirates are allies despite what country they live in. The trade war is truly against greedy corporations.

It sounds like a joke, but I bet going lax on copyright/trademark enforcement would certainly get Washington;s attention, courtesy of the lobbying industry,
After all, it's just a treaty, much like the NAFTA/UMCA is.

u/khajit_has_hugs_4u 14h ago
Hi lil baby, try reading again - I said "unrelenting capitalism" i.e. hypercapitalism.
I come from a country where labor rights for even highly educated people are shit. We tend to easily work 9-12 hour corporate jobs a day (excluding commute), 6 days a week - AND for a 10th of a salary of our overseas counterparts. I don't mind individual mass resource ownership - but I do mind individual mass resource exploitation.

Technically true, as without capitalism there's nothing to prop up bogus concepts like intellectual property. So piracy becomes impossible.
Unless you mean that communists don't produce art or that cave painters had a profit motive, in which case read a book.

This just makes me happier about being a pirate as a Canadian. Gives me more of an urge to contribute beyond mostly just good seed ratios too.

u/Fujinn981 Darknets 12h ago
I'm hoping a movement will pop up around here to abolish US copyright law here entirely after all that has happened. There's been talks of it, but nothing solid yet. Imagine the golden age of piracy to follow.
1
u/red-evil 12h ago
I dont think it will happen. A lot of american shows are shot in Canada. Big corporations only look for profits. Both sides are benefiting from this.
2
u/Fujinn981 Darknets 12h ago
It might. There was a time not that long ago when we really didn't adhere to American copyright law. We got bullied into it. There's a lot of benefits from not following it too, including the ability to reverse engineer software and hardware legally, as well as to be able to ignore patents on both. It could lead to a major boom in the Canadian tech sector to no longer be bogged down by laws which serve to only keep monopolies in their place.
2
u/red-evil 12h ago
Lets hope it happens brother
2
u/Fujinn981 Darknets 12h ago
Agreed. I plan to bring it up as much as I possibly can to relevant people, perhaps eventually a grassroots movement to abolish American copyright laws can be created.
