    it even happens with paid Amazon prime now. I just started a movie, got an ad. Stopped it and restarted it, got the same ad.

    Big tech is making SNAFU a reality for streaming.

          Pirating things on an iPad is one of the worst ways to do it, I hate the workaround we have with Stremio…

          I’d like the Jailbreak scene to make a great comeback, so it can help with all these annoyances… Or Apple widely supports sideloading at least.

            I love my iPad for many reasons - especially with Apple Pencil and procreate - but yeah it sucks for pirating. I didn’t realise how used to shutting down 6 new pop up windows every time I touched the screen I had become until my mum got one and I tried to teach her how to use pirate sites. After she called me in a panic about “the cartoon pornography I’d infected her iPad with” I gave up and signed up for an IPTV for us to share instead. It’s got a really decent vod library that’s updated regularly so it will do the trick for now.
