"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?
I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.
Piracy IS most definitely a service problem. I bought the Scott Pilgrim game on Steam and had terrible performance and frequent crashes from Denuvo. I pirated the game and it runs completely fine now. You are often paying for a worse experience when you don't pirate.
