Threatening messages aimed to prevent digital piracy have the opposite effect if you're a man, a new study from the University of Portsmouth has found. According to the research, women tend to respond positively to this kind of messaging, but men typically increase their piracy behaviors by 18%.
Early Netflix was great. I stopped pirating. I guess it has been a good 10 years but it’s back to the high seas now.
Having access to every Star Trek ever was great, but Netflix’s recommendation algorithm was top notch. It gave me things I would never have sought out but loved anyway.
But since Netflix started just pushing their own shit, regardless of whether I’d like it or whether I’d already watched it or whether it was literally cancelled by Netflix it’s enshittified to the point I don’t know why I still pay for it.
