Alternatively you can buy physical media
- Comment on Netflix is starting to phase out its cheapest ad-free plan 3 hours ago:
You pay $10 a month for just Plex? That seems expensive for what it is. Maybe get something more efficient?

- Comment on Uber and Lyft now required to pay Massachusetts rideshare drivers $32 an hour 2 days ago:
Hexbear is full of the weirdest people. Then again, that shouldn’t be surprising as it is a bit of a political weird.

That’s insane

The US government rightly has issues with Chinese ethics but they don’t seem to understand the problem
- Comment on Shopping app Temu is “dangerous malware,” spying on your texts, U.S. lawsuit claims 3 days ago:
I personally wouldn’t use Temu as it is as sketchy as a piece of paper.
With that being said, I’m not sure how Temu is worse than every other company including Amazon and Walmart.

You really should get 200mb
- Comment on While China has warned the West against 'decoupling', the country’s censorship system is designed for the purpose of isolation, report says 5 days ago:
In a lot of ways China fears its own people getting access to information. It isn’t a dictatorship to my knowledge but neither was big brother in 1984.
I do think governments are overstepping there authority with large companies. The US and China are not the only ones.
- Comment on Verizon screwup caused 911 outage in 6 states—carrier agrees to $1M fine 1 week ago:
Ok, I didn’t know that. Yeah they need to get in some more trouble and the regulators should ask way more questions. In the worse case it shouldn’t be uncalled for to revoke there lice she to operate as a mobile carrier
- Comment on Verizon screwup caused 911 outage in 6 states—carrier agrees to $1M fine 1 week ago:
That’s the idea
- Comment on Verizon screwup caused 911 outage in 6 states—carrier agrees to $1M fine 1 week ago:
It was a one time event. Granted losing access to emergency services is very bad but they did come forward and admit wrong doing. If this happens a second time they can jump the fine up.
- Comment on Paramount Plus is getting yet another price hike 1 week ago:
Well what did you expect. Making content costs money and they want return. All those original series people wanted.
I just buy blurays. I have a collection growing.

Honestly it is even more terrifying if it is so secretive and secure that no one thinks about it.
- Comment on Apple might partner with Meta on AI 1 week ago:
Why? How is Meta somehow worse? Apple products aren’t really private and they definitely do not respect your freedom.

Thanks
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
leaving aside a brief moment where it took down that barrier
That was the problem that started this mess. They aren’t even willing to admit that was the cause. If they would of admitted wrong doing off the bat and looked to settle the book publishers may of just left them alone. The problem is they can’t see past there own nose
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
They didn’t though
That’s why they are getting sued.
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
They literally poked the bear. They had a copyright exception for the Wayback machine. Apparently they though it would be a good idea to put everything in danger by illegally sharing books. They say they should be exempt because they are a library but all libraries are still required to follow the law.
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
No, that’s supporting piracy.
What the Internet Archive really needs it to stop breaking copyrights.
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
Right? The US government was on there side and granted the Wayback machine a copyright exception. Apparently they let that go to the head.
- Comment on 500,000 Books Have Been Deleted From The Internet Archive’s Lending Library 1 week ago:
The make this sound so bad but then you realize that the Internet Library never should of been giving these out to begin with. They complain about being sued but they were the ones that poked the bear.

Nice
- Comment on Pornhub prepares to block five more states rather than check IDs 1 week ago:
It literally isn’t. Weed leaves a trace everywhere it goes as it is a physical substance
- Comment on Pornhub prepares to block five more states rather than check IDs 1 week ago:
Marijuana is much easier to control as it is physical and lingers in the body. It is physical vs digital.
You can copy and download data all day long. It is the same reason why banning encryption will not make encryption go away overnight.
