Eh, Fuck them, what are they going to do about it? You think I gave them my name and address?
Besides, I haven't done anything wrong. I just told them of my intention, and that's not illegal. Maybe I'll follow through, maybe I won't. I'm Schrodinger's Pirate.
It's not a perfect system, but it still hurts them. They won't be satisfied with SOME of the money, they want it ALL.
I play the guitar. I once knew a guy that pumped iron through ever commercial break.
None of that is the point. They want the chance to get into your brain, and if you don't even allow the ads to run, then they lose that opportunity.
They paid out all that money, and you're getting it for free. Corporations hate that more than anything.
I wrote to them and told them that ABC has been my news supplier for decades, but now I'll be switching to NBC. I'll also be cancelling my HULU sub.
As for their broadcast content, I told them that I will either pirate it, or watch it in TIVO, and skip the ads. That's what really hurts them.
All media companies do not serve entertainment as their core business. They are literally nothing more than advertising platforms. That's where 100% of their revenues comes from. The entertainment is just bait, to make us sit on our couch, and hopefully be too lazy too move our fat asses when the ads come on.
So threatening to consume their expensive bait without consuming their revenue-producing ads, really hurts.
Just pirate it. No commercials.
Demand your money back. It's bad enough when they are losing future biz, but they'll really hate if they have to give any money BACK.
Exactly. You could check every box in MAGA Bingo, but if you have the slightest qualms about sending innocent people to a life sentence in a third world torture prison without due process, you're as liberal as a San Francisco Homo or a Black Woman.

Schmuck Schumer is hard at work, editing his last one, so we don't think it's the same one.
Jokes on him, nobody is paying any attention to him anyway. He could give the same speech every time, and nobody would even notice.
What a loser. If we aren't going to kick him out, just ignore him, and let him get back to his insider trading. That's his only priority anyway. He might as well be a MAGA.
Reddit has been dead since February, when Spez met with The Goblin, and then permabanned thousands, maybe millions of highly active accounts, including me. I was permabanned for repeating a post I had made many times with no issues. After 12 years, and almost a million Karma, I was suddenly too dangerous to allow on the platform, along with thousands of others.
We high volume posters built Reddit, but we shifted from being assets to problems after Trump was elected again.
He can't write anything. The stroke rendered his right hand unusable, and he's probably permanently loopy, more than usual. It's "Weekend at Bernie's: The White House Years."
Duh, because I want them to hear from an angry longtime customer. They know that a person like me, who bothers to write to them, represents thousands of similar customers. If they hear from enough people, they may change their minds.
