If there’s anyone whose bills I want to see made into law, it’s the greedy little content goblins abusing artists and choking out every last bit of creativity from movies and tv for an extra buck. Make it harder to pirate and I’ll work harder.

This exactly. I suppose I may actually have to engage my VPN on starlink now. I stopped bothering a long time ago. Tbh, I've grown rather lazy - I used to have several machines that were as anonymous as could be at any given time.

Seems like that time again.

The only people this legislation will prevent from piracy are the people least likely to pirate anything - to the rest of us, this is like fuel.

A law that protects the lower players and punish blood-sucking corps? Not very soon let me tell you.
