What choice do you think consumers have?

Consumers have the choice to pirate. Nay. The moral imperative. Fuck hollywood.

Or watch a lower quality Widevine certified (L3 is easy to reach), or watch linear TV, or circumvent copyright protection such as DeCSS.

Arg!

COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS YOUR BEST ENTERTAINMENT VALUE.

They have to choice to elect representatives that will legiferate on it, such as the EU with Apple regarding USB-C or app store sideloading.

So should I be voting Democrat or Republican to get that? /s

You should vote to join the EU, maybe it'll work!

Theoretically, "thrown away" votes for the Pirate party would get attention from red and/or blue both if there were enough of them.

Ask for ranked voting so you don't have to throw away your vote.
