Editing Introduction to a Self Managed Life: a 13 hour & 28 minute presentation by FUTO software (section)

== Conclusion ==

While many of these scenarios are brought about via legit grievances with the current state of you-own-nothing-digital-media with spyware on top, in my opinion, there’s a clear ethical distinction between retaining access to content you’ve purchased versus never intending to support people who have provided you value. The higher items on this list represent what I find to be genuine consumer rights abuses, while the lower items represent entitled cunts hiding behind moral superiority who lack the honesty to say they just don’t want to pay for anything. Even an ''“I hate that industry and want to bleed them dry &amp; don’t care about the consequences”'' would be more acceptable to me, for at least it’s honest.

When I advocate for having full control over what you buy &amp; pay for, I’m specifically addressing the upper scenarios where customers have made good-faith attempts to support creators but are getting screwed left &amp; right by content companies &amp; distributors by artificial restrictions, deceptive practices, and technical limitations.
