Western brands in general are losing market share in China.

All these companies that outsourced in the 90s and 00s are having their chickens come home to roost.

You know what reduces copyright infringement? Making content available, affordable and accessible.

In the golden days of Netflix, I hardly torrented anything.

There’s also a “I’m not going to get some bullshit masquerading as the movie I was looking for.” thing in place.

I belong to a couple private trackers. I use them nearly exclusively and have never once downloaded a bullshit file/virus/whatever. It’s happened a couple times on public ones.

I know who the good uploaders are and know that seeding on the private isn’t going to get me flagged to my ISP, which happened twice before going off public.

I guess what I’m wondering is: why wouldn’t you use one if you can find what you’re looking for?

Some real axis of evil shit going down. Anyone who questions if they’re the baddies at this point is intentionally being obtuse.
