Legit. Piracy related to home PC software has been around since the advent of home PCs. Before the concept of LANfests or LAN parties even existed, there were copy parties. I still have vivid memories of 8+ 1541 drives daisy-chained to a single C64. University servers hosting warez… Usenet… there’s likely earlier examples I’m not aware of.
Before that, people were hacking phone systems in order to call long distance for free. This ain’t nothin new.
Not something I’ve indulged in for 30+ years, though. I pay for everything, now. Guilty conscience, I suppose. 😁
Huh? The Piracy community on dbzer0 is still up, just checked.
People on LW can’t see it anymore apparently
Another reason to create an account on a smaller instance rather than .world
And this one is going to actually have an impact
Good thing I moved to a different instance.
Which one did you choose?
You can actually see my instance by looking at my username.
There are many instances out there, you could use something like fedidb to decide on which one you want to join.
lol
Do you happen to know why?
Admins decision, probably illegal in their jusridiction
Please link me to it because its no longer in my subscriptions and I can’t find it in a search at all.
