I'm also an American, and this is 100% accurate. My countrymen are assholes, and the only thing they've ever cared about are problems that directly affect them.

[–] SpacetimeMachine@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Huh, I'm American and I'm surrounded by people who are incredibly kind and nurturing and will bend over backwards to help others. Sounds like you live in a shit part of the country if you only have assholes near you.

Turns out the 'shining beacon on a hill' and the 'thousand points of light' they used to talk about were all crosses burning.

Do not conflate the people with the corporations.

And let's not ignore the fact that many nations were happy to buy and profit until the USA government turned into a bargain sale for billionaires.

Cut us all off, so corporate can use internet, what they meant to use it for. Corporate Porn.

Like shouldn't they just be suing the customers directly for a bazillion dollars at this point?

Haha the US is so fucking dumb bro I can't

Um, has there ever been a time Sony, the rootkit DRM company has not called for state intervention to enforce IP laws regarding Sony holdings? (All the while Sony pirates anyone else's stuff.)

This is like the news that Comcast objects to municipal areas opening up Comcast monopoly regions to new ISPs. Sony is almost as bas as Nintendo when it comes to their franchises.

Get a vpn provider. Set the location as the Netherlands. Set up a docker container with deluge and openvpn, and set it up to use your vpn provider.

Voila. You only need run your torrent traffic through the vpn, and it’ll be on its own kill switch.

Sony: still trying to make the Betamax monetization plan work....

[–] arararagi@ani.social 7 points 3 days ago

That's dystopian, good luck finding a job besides servicing without internet.

[–] kandoh@reddthat.com 5 points 3 days ago

That's like cutting wizards off from their source of magic

surely this is only for torrents right? there should be no way they can detect DDL.

Spectrum will hijack your DNS if they catch you filtering and make you talk to their "security team" it's a bit of a joke but they do it.

But you know, use a vpn or proxy to avoid this bullshit and enjoy your internet.
