  • This interaction reminds me of an Always Sunny episode. The gang are mad because their favourite movie franchise sold out and got bad, so the whole episode is about them complaining with the movie execs about how the changes made to the movie (to attract different audiences in order to try to make the franchise profitable again) all suck, and what they should be doing differently. But the punchline of the episode is they have all along been streaming the movie series and not paying to watch it, so they are part of the problem.

    Never expected to see it played out IRL though, and the fact you’re being downvoted makes it all a bit less funny…

    E: and now me :D maybe the dissenters would like to enlighten us as to how piracy doesn’t affect capitalism?



  • The fact that they’re asking for the information in order to compare against for identity verification should tell you that they already have the information.

    If you were a fraction as savvy as you seem to think you are, you’d know that deleting your PII from your profile did absolutely nothing in terms of removing it from their systems. Right now you’re whingeing about how upset you are about having to give them a phone number… that they already have.

    This would only be discussion-worthy if you had actually removed the information and they were demanding it back. You didn’t and they’re not, they’re verifying the information you gave them to prove your identity using industry standard methods. If it wasn’t for the fact these are getting posted during school hours I’d assume you’re some edgelord teenager…
