Yes! I'm sure many of us would! Do you think that spreading copyrighted media and growing piracy is part of their plan as well? You mentioned it as a poison and I could definitely see it as such a tool.

DMCA is a huge attack vector. Also, freer sites attract "illegal" steaming providers/links, for like sports events, which seems to be a hugely contentious issue.

This right here. It is kinda crazy how these services can continue to exist. Do you think that laws need to be rewritten or that the public is in the wrong and should change? I know that it's kind of a charged question, but I feel that everyone needs to be asking themselves this.

The official DMCA process is basically guilty until proven innocent, so it rubs me wrong. The larger questions are over my pay grade. No victim, no crime, and fuck the Feds.
