I have defended my position I did not want it to dominate the conversation.
Good enough.
We’re not “popular opinion”
If I fast forward through commercials on my dvr, am I stealing from media broadcasters too?
If I close my eyes while riding the bus and never see the bus adverts, am I stealing from advertisers?
There’s never a guarantee advertisements are seen by target audiences - especially when they’re being shown on private devices. If more people than expected are able to avoid an advertisement, thats not theft, that’s just poor investment.
that better be an unpopular opinion 😠
I’d steal directly from their wallet if I had the opportunity
OP understood the community assignment
That isn’t unpopular its delusional.
It is satire.
A day late
Popular opinion: Good
Real “The law is the law” type behavior
GOOD
Exactly! Isn’t that great?
I love stealing from shit companies that objectively make life, this world, and humanity shit.
I won’t ever steal from a person
But companies that lie, steal, cheat, and try ruining everything to get an extra dollar for the CEO? All is fair, the more the better, fuck you for ruining the world.
I know right,
live stealing from corporations. the steal from us all the time. this barely dents the balance
Good, smart TVs are cancer. I don’t have one, never intend to have one.
That sounds like something you would say! 😀
Right? I think this user is hilarious, and this post is definitely on brand.
It’s crazy people can’t tell he’s shitposting with a name like that.
Stealing is cool 😎
factually not correct.
what is ‘being stolen’ exactly?
Nothing is being taken from them, they just aren’t getting everything they planned on. that is not theft. just like piracy isn’t theft since nothing is physically being taken or lost.
This is like the 1800s definition of theft. Its been updated but people keep repeating this over and over.
ok…
Yeah, it is not an opinion, it is just plainly wrong. You agree to explicit and well defined terms in the EULA for the product. Opinions aren’t relevant, just the facts of the EULA. My Roku TV EULA does not mandate a maintained internet connection, so I never agreed to provide internet to my TV.
I support piracy but just be nitpicky, data theft is absolutely a thing, hackers do that all the time and you could argue piracy is somewhat data theft or intellectual property theft. Half the internet is up in arms about AI’s use of intellectual property without compensation or consent.
Nope, up in arms about that they think they own it now
So they claim to own it now when they didn’t own it before and they didn’t pay or otherwise compensate for it. That sounds an awful lot like theft
Too late for April fools. No way you sincerely hold this belief
