Well tbf, on most devices it’s usually disabled by default so this is one of the typical “well 99% of our users are unaffected so eat it or go away”. Always kinda dick-ish to do something like this.
The salt in the comments of the announcement are glorious though. Yeah, poor pirates getting robbed of their sub. Pirates never have to go to various different websites to get what they want, yep.
I’m sure they do but I have no doubt a ton of people also simply are in the typical “I don’t care, it doesn’t affect me directly but the subs going dark does so it’s bad” mode as many are with lots of things these days sadly.
Problem is it will work lul. Just read some comments in some subs that are restricted like the Star Wars one. Kinda sad to see people bend over so easily only because they cannot post in their sub for a few days. Like, geez doesn’t matter at all what % of people use 3rd party apps. A little bit of inconvenience doesn’t kill anyone and it’s good to stand up for stuff like this as well.
