A new survey from Norway reveals that 50% of young people under 30 believe that pirating content is an acceptable way to save money. The survey, conducted by Ipsos, highlights that the high cost of streaming services is a key driver behind this attitude. Links between piracy and organized crime or malware, appear to be of less concern.

I think regular people who started to use the internet during the 90s and 2000s tend to know how to pirate more than the ones who started using them at a later decade.

It's for old people over 30, like me, so we feel old.

Specifically excluding the ones who are exactly 30, since those transcend the confines of young and old.
