They know what they are doing. They are just trying to make enough hurdles to ensure normies don't switch.

Piracy is deff on the rise but I doubt it will go mainstream and that's what's need to properly punish these rent seekers

Sure might be on the rise but still down from its peak.

streaming services were good, most of us just paid for it during that time many people lost the skills and wills to do the job.

gonna take a while for people to get properly pissed to retrain.

Thats what I think is funny about the whole thing. They'd effectively won against piracy then were like "cool everyone is paying now LETS FUCKIN DRAIN THE SLUTS"
