I believe we’re approaching the final 3-5 years of prevalent piracy for several reasons:
-
Software: The difficulty of cracking and modifying software has significantly increased.
-
Movies and TV Shows: Numerous streaming sites have been shut down or faced legal penalties.
-
Adult Content: New releases are often removed within 1-5 weeks, and many older titles are no longer available on piracy platforms.
Given these trends, what might a post-piracy world entail?
Sure, I have no issues with someone cracking adobe photoshop. In my case, I’m not going to be doing any serious photoshopping, so GIMP and KdenLive are suitable alternatives for me, a hobbyist, that wants the minimum effort required to use the tool every now and again.
