Tried to support the industry by buying a movie a watch a lot. Well, no more. If I need a pihole just to watch a movie I own, that’s ridiculous.

My fridge does not. My toothbrush does not. I can also simply not connect my tv. So 1/3, and that one is optional. I get you’re being flippant/sarcastic, but figured I’d just make that clear.
A Blu-ray player plays physical discs. I can buy ones without internet. It’s not difficult. I have one right now lmao
And yes I agree it’s insane and being shoved down our throat. Which is why I am incredulous at the idea that a Blu-ray player needs to connect to the internet. Think through this a bit.
A 1080p player does not require internet connectivity but 4K/UHD discs need to phone home in order to get decryption keys on a per disc basis. There is a lot of discussion about this in the MakeMKV forums if you want to do a deeper dive.
Is that true for hardware players? I’ve only seen people talking about software players like Power DVD having to get keys from the Internet.
Is it really that hard to imagine a future where DRM encroaches further and further on us? Your fuckin blue ray player might not connect to the internet but it is still region locked.
I really don’t think you’re picking up what I’m putting down here. No, it’s not that difficult to imagine, because it’s happening. I am saying it’s bullshit and I’m annoyed about it.
Ignore them, they are a troll and aren’t likely acting in good faith.
Ahh a hexbear user now I see. Thanks for the heads up lol
God I wish you could block all users from an instance. Them and grad are like 40% of the hostility I experience
Grad is defederated here thankfully, it’s possible from the thread they made on [email protected] that they’ll defed from dbzer0 in the future, so at least here on dbzer0 it might not be an issue for much longer.
Unfortunately I also meet some seriously aggressive people on dbzer0 too but not nearly to the extent of hexbear and grad. World is a bit worse than dbzer0 but not as bad as bear/grad.
