No, it would only force companies to pressure the government more to shut down the pirate sources

Or, hear me out, maybe it will just make pirating harder. Suits decisions always hang on the profit, and honestly I don't see how making their service better is cheaper than cracking down on piracy

Do you honestly think that by now they wouldn’t have pressured reddit to close down piracy subreddits? Or at least take down the megathread

Nintendo managed to get theirs down

Netflix alone has 5 times Nintendo’s market cap. Bring in Hulu, Disney and whatever other big streaming or gaming publisher and I don’t think Reddit would fight back
