Me too, I kind of always saw this coming and it really pissed me off when elitist pirates would try and bully people into buying it. Now I can and will rub their faces in it.
I mean I'm just gonna go buy an identical service, so have fun with your face rubbing.
I was mainly taking a jab at the original Kodi addons community which had a lot of very toxic and elitist people in it which would bully people for not wanting to buy, specifically, RealDebrid to use for addons which only work with RealDebrid. These people are very much screwed now because many of those addons were RealDebrid exclusive and are effectively broken because of it. They were warned about this many times before and they laughed at the people who warned them about this happening.
I wouldn't call anyone buying into a piracy service an elite pirate, they are the piracy equivalent of script kiddies.
I agree, it was the best way I could describe the behavior, since they think they are elites even though they absolutely are not.
