I hear there are some nice communities dedicated to piracy somewhere on the fediverse.
I think a lot of people stopped pirating because of Netflix, when they first started and they had a lot of good content and reasonable prices.
Now that it's just full of bland Netflix Originals and they're trying to squeeze every last penny from people already battling a cost of living crisis, it might be time to dust off the old jolly roger again.

It's a classic move - start a convenient free or cheap product to kill the competition and then jack up the monetisation.
I remember the enormous amount of Torrenting there was of Lost and the like, so they'd be eager to sign up to streaming services too. I think the problem now is that it's even easier to illegally stream films and TV, so they aren't even doing that well on the convenience front.
