I would like to say piracy against the big guy also hurts the little guy making the content you like.

I won't support something that hurts a regular person giving me the things I like to watch, but I get your sentiment. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] JamesFire@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent
