We already got a lesson on how to beat piracy. In the early 2010s, streaming companies effectively beat privacy by offering easier access and fair pricing.

But then everyone got greedy again...

I don't feel exactly comfortable using stuff like this, like I'm well aware that it's fueling international crime etc. But pick your criminals at this point, and honestly, the smaller guys vs the media conglomerates are somehow still less crooked.
