i know this is extremely unlikely to happen, but imagine if both mozilla and google decides to remove adblock extensions in every way, if that happens, would you still pirate?
Some people might say about *arr aplications, but imo that wouldnt work, simply because without adblocks, the trackers would do something to stop it.
i have no idea what connection you think there is between piracy and adblockers. if anything, wouldn't killing all adblockers encourage more piracy, not less?
I pirate cause the companies that produce what I want are greedy shit bags not because of ads.
For people who pirate because they can't afford the increasingly more expensive games, how does the removal of adblocks change anything?
I think they're talking about ads on download pages making it more difficult to click the correct download button when pirating
Even if they do remove them from the official stores, you can always go straight to the source and sideload it.
Ads have never stopped me. Reasonable pricing to access content stopped for me for several years tho. Fuck you, Zaslav.
Many of us was already a pirate before Mozilla, Google and adblocks were created.
yes, if pirating were more of a pain in the ass because of ads, I would still do it.
I would just use an /etc/hosts blocklist for adblock. Impossible for that to go away as long as ads are served over the internet
