And if you weren’t already convinced, those streaming services will kneecap the service you paid for by only giving lower bitrates, max quality 1080p, etc., unless you use their app. Why would anyone want to avoid using their apps? Because they have malware baked into them that spies on you.
For how shitty cable TV was, at least they couldn’t use that service to eavesdrop on your private conversations, track what you watch, etc. If they find your personal data so profitable and worth taking from you, they should at least offer their service for free and get real consent from you before you use it. Big, bold letters next to the download button that say this service is monetarily free but we will spy on you very hard in exchange for its use.
Until their services stop being shitty, expensive, and crammed full of malware, it’s the 7 seas for me, baby 🏴☠️⛵🏴☠️
