Let's say an app came out that allowed pirating without consequences; that it connected every user to a fast, anonymous network, and users could donate anonymously to content creators and/or uploaders.
Piracy were so normal that even your grandma could just search "ahoy movie name", be directed to a third party store, download and install the "Ahoy App" and start watching movies and TV shows like on Popcorn Time or listen to music like on Napster and Spotify. It reached mainstream popularity and had download numbers like WhatsApp or TikTok.
Is this something we would want? Would the entertainment industry survive?
No entertainment should not be an industry, should not be a capitalist profit generator.
