Is piracy finally over in 2026? i dont hear anyone talking about "downloads" and "cracks" anymore

wow it turns out Empress was ACTUALLY a real girl after all
>>
Piracy had its heyday from Limewire through 2015 or so. Spotify and streaming killed music piracy more than anything else.
Also why pirate a game if you can get it for ~$2 at zero hassle/and install it at your leisure whenever
>>
>>729685871
you are simply out of touch
denuvo games finally started getting cracked and empress was always a fraud

It's not over for me. I still have a folder of games I downloaded.

Pirating simply became oversimplified and sovlless like everything else. No more sussing out shady torrent sites and dodging dolphin porn and viruses, no more looking for cracks and updates seperately. Sites like FitGirl and DODI are retardproof and include everything needed so there's nothing to talk about anymore in regards to piracy.

the point is attention to piracy is not so common anymore because everything is spoonfed. Piracy isn't actually dead like OP claims; it's just that it's so easy now, that there's no need to scramble to find a crack and avoid fakes or malware. and therefore, people don't talk about it anymore. zoomies will use their lame subscription services, meanwhile people with an actual brain will find repack sites and such and get whatever they want easy.

Spotify brought back piracy for me when they decided to fund Joe Rogan and ICE. I used all of the recommendations Spotify's algo gave me, exported all of my liked music and scraped it all from deezer. Now my home server has terabytes of music, tv and movies, all free.

Truth is, piracy in the modern era has never been easier and more accessible, so as long as one knows where to look. If you spend even a small amount of time dedicated to a little bit of research, you will find what you seek. this can be said for movies, music (which is definitely the easiest these days for high quality lossless), books/literacy, and of course video games.

While it is true that this is a vital issue with modern piracy and AAA(A) slop, one need only be patient. It all gets cracked, eventually.

No, it didn't.

You're too young, and obviously too ignorant and inexperienced to even begin to respond here.

Piracy is still huge. But because so many normies choose to torrent, some states have laws specifically targeting those.

Meanwhile, on Usenet (the first part of the Internet)...

Or meanwhile on IRC...

There's still a scene, and what you normies see is only a surface level.

Now fuck off.

So have you Mr. Piracy Tough Guy ever even had an account on a proper scene FTP site? (not that I have either, but Usenet and IRC channels aren't where the old world warez scene lives unless you're talking about site/group IRC channels ofc)

>There's still a scene, and what you normies see is only a surface level.
I find it hard to believe there's still a PC game warez scene which is capable of and willing to crack Denuvo games yet the cracks never, ever leak to us lamers. You have some juicy iNTERNAL releases?
Also on the TV/movie side P2P "lamers" started winning a long time ago on quality and even release speed.
>>
>>729685871
Piracy is going stronger than ever. There's just no reason to ever talk about it. Everyone that should know already knows where and how to get most things and it's pointless and often even detrimental to talk about it to those that don't. If you look at anything on the internet it's always the same tale, it was better before more people became aware of it. Once it became mainstream it went to shit. There's never been a case where anything is improved by having more people aware of it. So why would anyone ever talk about anything outside of those places with other people who already know about it, in an attempt to keep the status quo?
>>
>>729711694
>but Usenet and IRC channels aren't where the old world warez scene lives
Isn't it kind of fractured these days? I get a lot of that stuff from a forum style website now, there's no way it's older than 2008 I'd say. The community on there is pretty good though
>>
>>729685871
Piracy is easier than ever, private trackers have everything without Denuvo, and Denuvo bypasses are automated now and as easy as clicking a few buttons on a Discord server and pasting some files in.

Piracy is still going big. People still use DDLs, p2p clients, and torrents for media and software. Only thing is now that lots of services got good prices so the degree of piracy is lesser than what it used to be me 10+ years ago, and piracy became more underground so if you want to get the right goods, you need to dig deeper because surface level sites are subpar at best and for lots of good reasons.
>>
>>729685871
A lot of games with heavy-handed DRM aren't even worth your time.
