If you disagree with the politics or culture of a distributor, and boycott them, but still consume work via piracy (YouTube, file sharing etc) without finding a way of paying the artist, you’re not protesting, or really even boycotting. You’re consuming while in denial.

A teenage girl just alleged she had sex with Matt Gaetz while living in a homeless shelter because she was saving up money to pay for braces to fix her teeth.
She had just finished her junior year of high school.

I can't access my messages on BlueSky because I won't do age verification. And I honestly have no idea how a VPN works. Can anyone enlighten me?
The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.
The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.

Thank you, Dave!
Can recommend, really enjoyed The Other People
Hi all. My lovely new book, THE OTHER PEOPLE, is out now in paperback. The Times called it one of their Crime Novels of the Year and obviously I agree. If you'd like to read it, please do. I think you'd enjoy it. Sorry, but I may be banging on about this for a while.
