Legal Streams
Let Disney Kill your Family
C:> They could try to use terms and agreements to get away with murder.</
beFreePirate.fuincredibly disappointed that’s not a pirate streaming site
Legal streams let something worse than criminals in. Lawful criminals.
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
Hah! Like the “legal” services are much better than that!
Hey now, the legal services tell you they’re stealing your data. It’s in section 9, subsection 14, paragraph 423 of the terms of service.
It’s 507 paragraphs long and written in a mix of German and Esperanto but yeah, it’s right there! Clear as day!
Shoutout to Sony BMG putting rootkits in legally bought CDs.
You would be safer pirating.
Yea and when you legally stream the mouse can legally kill you
Clarification: The Mouse as in Disney Corporation not as in the thing you use to move your pointer.
Oh, if Disney Corp could use the mouse pointer or the one on your desk, or even a living breathing mouse, or whatever else mouse or not rest assured - if killing you somehow benefits them they’ll do it. They might do it from sheer incompetence too and they’ll try to write it off as business as usual. Also, it applies to anyone you know for good measure.
OK this hilarious. Guess who owns this domain. It is Sky UK
Sky are a bunch of bastards.
They were bought by Comcast a number of years ago, so they’re actually worse than before if you can believe it.
Wonder how much of your personal data they have? 😆
Or how many times they’ve been hacked, or broke the law.
legal streams already do
Pretty much everything does, even your car will and I would totally download a car if I could.
please download an oil change first
Not needed if downloaded car is a EV
Does that mean i can finally download some blinker fluid?
Technically the legal stream tell you.
More crime is committed in the making of media than in pirating it.
Also more wrongdoing against society and the public that the justice department couldn’t be bothered with (so doesn’t count as crime).
Pirate it all or don’t watch it.
Pirate it all or don’t watch it.
Been living by this for decades since I learned from my highschool computer science teacher that it was even possible. I’m 50 now and I have paid only twice for tv and movies in my adult life.
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
So very ironic when it’s the opposite between them.
“1 in 10 people believe they are not at risk when using illicit sources to watch TV, film or sports.”
ONE in ten? Man, they’re even bad at cherry picking statistics 😂
They even cite a study with only 1,000 participants for their statistic that “32% OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VICTIMS OF FRAUD”
In the title, at least. The body of that claim’s card says that it’s the people, or someone they know that have been victims of fraud.
Gosh, I hate dishonest scare marketing campaigns.
The only thing I’m at risk of is receiving a warning from my ISP :(
I’ll get a VPN one day I promise
they could steal your personal data without you knowing
Is that supposed to be more intimidating than corporations stealing my personal data with or without me knowing?
You should use legal streams that you pay for so you know they’re stealing your personal data!
does this mean if I pay for streaming my privacy will be respected
🤔
Huh, I didn’t think emojis would be italicized. Interesting.

They don’t show up italicised for me (iOS)
They show up italicized for me, iOS Thunder app
Did you ask Tim Cook for permission before trying that ?
Yep
i love this so much
To ask…
You dropped this - /s
Sweet summer child
so i went to their website. For a site thats immediate branding is about how scary and dangerous hackers are, you’d think their news section would be full of fraud and ransomware stories. instead, their “latest news” is solely articles about people being arrested for using pirate streaming services or selling loaded firesticks.
The single exception to this is a “social experiment” they allegedly did where they put a QR code up at the tube marked as “free streaming for life” and had people put pii in to sign up. This entire “initative” is solely another way to harvest user data lmao.
people being arrested for using pirate streaming services
What circumstances does that even happen in? Like a bar that plays a pirated sports stream?
Gonna be honest I didn’t read the articles so I’m not entirely sure. I did see a headline about cops going to peoples houses to issue warnings so maybe isps are snitching?
I’d be skeptical that’s even real, outside of a select few countries with especially strict copyright enforcement
Not even in the US, which it seems leads the charge on enforcing copyright most of the time.
It’s the “your internet could be disabled” scare tactics.
Theres firestick apps that stream all the regular channels, plus all the premium channels. (HBO, showtime, stars, ppv, etc) Essentially for $10 - $20 a month you get the best, most decked out cable package one could buy. You may or may not have access to all the new and old movies, TV shows (from all the platforms), and porn, on demand, as well. Maybe like that?
That doesn’t sound like something you get arrested for though
their “latest news” is solely articles about people being arrested for using pirate streaming services or selling loaded firesticks.
So just to be clear, the damage then is not from the actual piracy or due to any invasion from the source of the piracy, but rather 100% of the danger comes from the enforcement of piracy’s prohibition.
Yes, definitely sounds like piracy is the problem here 🙄
Don’t do illegal drugs, kids! You could get in trouble, because they’re illegal.
Yup! The fact that it is defined as “illegal” allows goons to storm your house and court troll to harrass you.
Thus everything they say is true, in some way…
And it’s not even illegal in the sense most people think of, it’s a copyright violation. Which is a regulatory thing, not a criminal law thing.
Given the cops can show up and harrass you in the UK it might be an actual criminal offence at this point over there.
social experiment" they allegedly did where they put a QR code up at the tube marked as “free streaming for life” and had people put pii in to sign up
It’s insane that this is even legal.
I feel like it isn’t? Like isn’t that just false advertising?
Zero sympathy for the phone zombies that saw a random code and decided to pursue it uncritically. Streamwise are pretty awesome trolls apparently.
Who are they stealing my personal data from, corporation?? Are they stealing it from me or from you??
