This sounds a bit like declaring victory in the war on drugs after shutting down one (1) cocaine operation

eyup. mission accomplished and no worries going forward.

MPA says no more “Whac-a-Mole” with pirate sites

Why would you say something you know you'll regret having said?

the thing about whack a mole is you, the player, do not get to decide if more moles pop up.

also, yeah, i've never heard of this and the fuckin piratebay is still up. i literally tell my students to use torrents and a vpn for anything they cant afford and might want to watch for class.

Most assuredly; that gentleman doesn’t have a clue what he’s talking about.

What he IS doing— is justifying his expenditure.

It will come to nothing anyway.

What a poop-nosed loser.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thank you. I have now added "poop-nosed loser" to my insult repitour.

That's it folks, they got the big boss. Wrap it up and let's go back to spending hundreds of dollars a month across dozens of platforms to not own any of the media we consume.

Fmovies, which the film industry group also called the "world's largest piracy ring," is said to have drawn more than 6.7 billion visits between January 2023 and June 2024. Launched in 2016, the Hanoi-based outfit included pirate sites bflixz, flixtorz, movies7, myflixer, and aniwave.

i've never heard of a single one of those

[–] [email protected] 93 points 2 months ago

The MPA is so out of touch. Let's not tell them.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Aniwave is very unfortunate, it was the best for streaming anime. Haven't heard of the others though.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, aniwave hurt... really easy UI, looked nice.

[–] [email protected] 65 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i'd put my money on there being another "aniwave" soon, rather than streaming anime is gone forever

the fact that these morons think that piracy depends on some singular centralized "mothership" that controls everything just demonstrates how clueless they are

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

doing a search just now, I saw two pop up. super functional as well.

these fellas ain't too bright. let's continue to allow them to think they are.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago
