You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?

    The people who can afford to fight this kind of court case have no interest in doing so.

        The consumer isn’t the last rung on the ladder. We’re on the fuckin ground. With footprints on our faces and medical bills to prove it.

        to give an actual answer instead of jaded teenage bullshit:

        yes, we have several

        Don’t expect any actual info from people around here. something tells me the comment section isn’t up for a fair analysis at where these things have failed us. it’ll be all soapbox, zero fact. I’m pretty baffled at how many people just told you No

          Of that list, BBB is apparently more of a business extortion scene. But consumer reports seems cool, I’ve used their site a few times.

          The rest, I’ve never heard of

      Why would they endanger the ability to sell the same movie dozens of times over?

      We should start a gofundme then to get the funds needed to afford such a fight. Id throw in 100$. Might take a few thousands of me, and a lot of time, but it should start somewhere.

        Or join the EFF which already does great work in this area. They don’t always succeed, but I doubt a GoFundMe could do better.
