“zomg russian cyber criminals are using free books to fund their lavish lifestyles!!!1!1!!!1! you should go support corporate rent seeking publishers ‘creators’ by paying thousands for basic knowledge!!!11”
this shit sounds like it was written by a middle schooler making a history presentation. it’s hilarious
It gives “QUIT HAVING FUN!!” vibes. :)
Exactly. Support those who create it. Not publishers or ebook lending companies
you wouldn’t download a car
i bet they even sent the policemans helmet to his widow
And then stole it again!
What’s the URL?
It’s their se domain I saw it on, but most of their older domains also display this
THOSE MOTHER FUCKERS BOUGHT A RAINBOW!?
I’m impressed.
It’s for rainbow washing :)
I know right? They don’t come cheap from the Rainbow Factory, those ponies drive a hard bargain.
Memories once buried have been unearthed…
But really, books already are not the way to make a fortune unless you are in the field of basically being able to dictate what books are used in every educational institution in an entire nation. How would they imagine a pirate, who shares these books, has server upkeep to pay and at best gets very sporadic donations, could afford a lavish lifestyle from this endeavour?
Note that with rare exceptions, creators are not supported by your purchases. Rather the studios, labels and publishers wh cheat creators are.
If you want to support the creators, pay them directly, or go to one of their performances / signings / functions. But still pirate their work.
That’s what I always do. There are smaller creators that I support via donations or patreon but I never pay directly for the content itself.
Reminder that sites like israel.tv are still “illegal” to visit and all US ISPs are forced to block it, even though this directly contradicts Net Neutrality.
They should show some pictures of the real leeches.
That seems nice. Glad they’re getting something in return for saving me so much money.
The FBI is trying to trick me into feeling guilty, too bad I was the firstborn of a single mother and this shit does not work on me anymore
Is that Dominic Torretto in the bottom right?
Oh no! What will the people with offshore bank accounts do without the collective 10 grand they didn’t squeeze? Damn criminals! They’re avoiding taxes by laundering money abroad!
😎 not to worry, corpo has directed your tax money towards righting this wrong. all will be well soon!
After the CEO gets back from their super yacht vacation, of course
(paid for by underpaying employees and wage theft)
good that the employees are predominantly debating who goes to which toilet ☺️ god forbid they notice the pay inadequacy.
That’s horrible! I can’t believe how these criminals are wasting the money that should rightfully be getting used for cheese pizza and hot dog parties!
Not a boat! Not a family vacation! Gasp! An… RV!?!?? SOMEONE THINK OF THE RIGHTSHOLDERS!
That caravan looks nice
