Pirating games on switch can be simple, free, and instantaneous if it's an old switch and you can follow a simple online guide first but that's beyond most boomers
Being “good with technology” is 90% looking things up and following instructions, and technology has only gotten easier to use over the years. The fact that so many boomers struggle with it tells me that they simply don’t want to take the time or care to do anything properly. All their talk about the laziness and entitlement of young people is projection.
knowing how to look things up and sift through the gradually-enshittifying internet for instructions is a skill in and of itself these days
every piracy forum has so many posts that are just "i followed this 9 year old youtube tutorial with single digit views, and is my console bricked?"
Sure it's a skill, but it's a skill they should have been developing for the last 20 years
