Fuck yeah they do, I have 3 of them. I use Stremio for watching all kinds of movies (although I also use Amazon Prime) and even my older family members know how to use Stremio that’s how easy it is to use.
All pirates drink water. What is water doing to stop piracy?
If Big Media is losing all this money, why aren’t they claiming these losses on their taxes?
Is it because they haven’t lost a dime?
Why is it ALWAYS the sports companies? Who cares about somebody illegally watching grown men try to prove they’re better than other grown men that much 🙄
Lately Ars Technica seems quite intent on losing any quality they had.
What kind of boot licking, inaccurate, non-news shit is this?
The only potential reason for this article is farming engagement bait clicks from people who don’t know shit about fire sticks, and from people like us stunned at the stupidity.
Same way as an HDMI cable enables piracy?
Internet enables most, if not all the piracy.
Poor service enables most, if not all piracy.
At least one thing Amazon does right then!
Well my Fire TV has a Jellyfin app that’s letting me watch shows not in streaming services or is impossible to get in my home country due to copyright.
Anyone else know the other apps that help make Amazon the ire of copyright?
Wolf Launcher, if you don’t want to deal with the shitty stock launcher.
CloudStream is good if you watch anime.
The folks on r/piracy seem to like an app called Stremio, but I haven’t got that one set up yet.
I have a Jellyfin client.
SmartTube Next is an ad free Youtube client for the firestick.
And then I also have Kanopy and Hoopla which let me access media via my public library card.
Stremio is almost like “piracy, the streaming service.”
It sequentially downloads torrents, on demand, in such a way that you can stream the content without ever having downloaded it.
It’s available on most app stores (though the iOS offering doesn’t have streaming, because Apple.)
Edit: I mean the file doesn’t get saved, it just pulls down the data it needs, uses it, then deletes it. When you’re done, the torrent data isn’t actually on disk.

Just finished watching Legend of Korra :)
There is a difference.
Say you buy a used PC or android stick and want to use it for piracy, ok, doable, but you’ll be doing most of the work. Kodi builds can get you there easily.
but compared to firesticks?
Firesticks have a piracy singularity going on. The entire secondary phase of cracking the OS and installing is intended for piracy. It’s an open and shut, easy, one-two punch to get into the ecosystem. All of the hardware is easy to track and maintain. My cousin has a hacked firestick and he can’t even open Microsoft Word. You can buy them pre-hacked with no real input or work needed on your part.
So what kind of software are they running on there ? Is it more than a link to a pirate streaming site ?
