The mods removed my comment with a link to a great free streaming site with the reason "don't link directly to pirated content."

I don't see that in the rules, so I guess it's one of those "mystery" rules they can just make up on the spot.

Anyways, you can find free streaming sites here: https://rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv#streaming

I recommend using fmovies. Make sure you have Adnauseam or uBlock Origin installed.

Gotta love phantom rules, just make it up as you go along.

It’s fun to watch people react and move on rather than stop and consider.

Then you didn't look too closely. !technology@lemmy.world's first rule is to follow the lemmy.world rules and links to the mastodon.world rules page. The first server rule there is "No illegal content."

Chitak is Swedish - no laws broken.

It's more about where the host server is located. Server owners in the US can lose protection from law suits if they don't actively moderate.

Nobody wants a cease and desist from the MPAA or RIAA. Least of all Lemmy admins with no money for lawyers.
