Not reading the article, but just chiming in to say... Disney+ is also changing its TOS to include ads at the beginning and end of content no matter the tier of subscription.
Enshittification in full effect. Corpo bullshit ass fuck face multi billionaire class asshole bitchass dickheads can go to hell.
As long as people keep accepting ads in their period service the streaming giants will keep adding more and more. Why people keep paying I don't understand
For now, pihole works on diseny+, the moment they work around it, I'm ending my subscription
„See guys? It worked well. Let’s raise our prices even more.”
If we raise prices 13 percent and only 10 percent leave our service... Huge profits.
Wouldn't you rather do less work for more money?
Imagine all the video streaming and storage infrastructure which can be rented to AI Bros instead. Imagine all the CSAM and copyright infringing material Grok and Co. can generate with all these free resources!
This is a "smart" business decision and that's why capitalism is bad.
I think they also added ads to every tier
that's assuming the stock won't go up regardless of the price increase outcome long enough for shares to be sold
Weigh, hey, and up she rises,
weigh hey, and up she rises,
weigh, hey, and up she rises, early in the morning.
Now we are ready to sail for the Horn
Weigh hey, roll and go!
Our boots and our clothes, boys, are all in the pawn
To be rollicking randy dandy-oh!
my jellyfin disney+ app didn't get ads yet weird
Definitely never going back to that subscription…
Do we have metrics on torrents increasing simultaneously?
Why do you think suddenly they're trying to crack down on piracy?
How? I haven't noticed anything.
They just introduced a bill to ban vpns from accessing piracy sites, I don't have the link on me but you can look it up. About 3 days ago
laughs in DHT
So, like, they want to enforce this on piracy sites?
If they had any ability to control piracy sites, wouldn't they just shut them down?
Sounds DOA.
As I said, a bill to ban VPNs from accessing piracy sites. Not forcing piracy sites to do anything, forcing providers to block access.
That doesn't make sense. VPN providers are even further outside their jurisdiction.
Oh no! I guess the only option is to keep paying!
The line must go up!
double dees and double these. oh wait. this is disney.
I don't click on links without knowing what they are first, what is this?
It's just a website for watching pirated movies
A free streaming site.
