I wonder which word would fit better than “assisted” there if we knew all the details. Bribed, or blackmailed?
Coerced
Ah, the usual propaganda from the fucking content mafia and the lobbyists they bought:
“The takedown of Fmovies is a testament to the power of collaboration in protecting the intellectual property rights of creators around the world,” Knapp says.
“Strengthening intellectual property rights is an important element of the U.S.-Vietnam Comprehensive Partnership,” Knapper said
I’ll happily repeat again and again and again:
- If pirate sites offer a better user experience than your paid offerings, you don’t deserve payments at all
- The money goes mostly to some rich fucks, fucking shareholders, lawyers and bought politicians and and not to the artists/creators of the movies (with some exceptions for the really big names)
- I will very happily pay a service which is not shitty, not region locked, doesn’t annoy me with advertisement and is reasonably priced. The illegal sites are demonstrating that it is possible to sustain such an offer on advertisement alone. Don’t give me fucking bullshit that it is not possible for companies like Netflix while most of the subscription fees are going to shareholders and higher management instead into creating new content
Seriously, fuck all the politicians and governments which act against the benefit of most of their population to conspire with the content mafia.
