I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

    “Piracy is a service problem.”

    “Unused RAM is wasted RAM.”

    “Communism doesn’t work.”

    Pretty much any pasty-faced white boy talking point is a load of malarkey.

      Piracy IS most definitely a service problem. I bought the Scott Pilgrim game on Steam and had terrible performance and frequent crashes from Denuvo. I pirated the game and it runs completely fine now. You are often paying for a worse experience when you don’t pirate.

        Piracy is a service problem if you have more money than sense or want the disparity in wealth to grow.

        It’s a monetary one otherwise, hence why piracy is the norm outside of 1st world countries.
