I don't expect you to be able to do that. Steam use a central auth system, and that's actually the purpose of steam protection (as a way to avoid ban evasion). I'm worried there is nothing you could do about that aside of buying the game.
Yeah in the antiwork subreddit my comments are instantly shadowbanned, my old comments in other subs show up , reddit is in major emergency mode apparently.
It's kind of hilarious. For years the mods of /r/piracy have been walking on eggshells about what kinds of links and discussion are permitted there because they were afraid Reddit would shut them down at any moment. And now Reddit is tossing the mods that worked so hard to toe their line and forcing them open.
I think they just want to increase traffic (and thus ad revenue) regardless if the community about copyright infringement. Once this blows over, they'll ban r/piracy faster than a gamer can click the mouse button.
O nie, prywatna firma przede wszystkim stawia na zyski, a nie na jakość czy wolność słowa. Kto by się spodziewał.
W zasadzie ogromna część subów w ten sposób działała, czyli firma bierze z nich przykład i teraz cały portal stanie się jednym wielkim echo chamber.
Jednym rozwiązaniem jest decentralizacja i działanie w sposób niezależny mniejszych portali. Tworzenie wielkich molochów, skupianie władzy w rękach wąskiego grona ludzi nigdy nie wychodzi na dobre ani użytkownik, ani wolności słowa.
The Achilles heel of the piracy community: content that not enough people care about to bother purchasing it and then re-distributing. Welcome, friend. Niche interest demand payment I'm afraid. Perhaps after you buy them all, you can rip to x265 and distribute...but keep in mind that company probably doesn't have many customers. You are probably hurting them if you do.
Haha what the fuck I really did NOT think they would do that to r/piracy of all things. Ah well fuck them and their shitty IPO. I‘m here with you guys for good, the structure of the fediverse suits our purposes and community better anyway.
Well, they could just say: "We made a script to track every mod who closed their sub, revogate its mod permissions and notify all other mods in the sub with an automatic message", which basically frees them from any charges regarding community content.
They could, however, be sued for not actively removing illegal content, such as pirated things and MAP related things (e.g. r/jailbait)
Do you have a laptop with a dvd reader, or have a computer cafe near you? They're dying out so more developed cities/countries might not have them. They'll definitely have one with a dvd viewer which you can use to dump using imgburn
Not sure mate. I've had a target on my back for the last couple of years I believe. I had a bunch of accounts at one stage for different purposes. I used to post a lot of long-form content: reviews, how-to tech guides etc etc and as a self preservation technique I kept each niche to a seperate account.
Over the last 2 years I had one 11 year old account, one 8 year old account and another few fresher ones perma-banned with no reason given, or just the flimsiest excuse under the sun. I must have really pissed off one of the mods/ admins - they can track you by IP and browser info etc.
Given the size of Reddit, admins don't check when mods abuse users, I had my 10 yr account with 150K nearly permabanned because of a mod banning me from my own countries sub for posting a non offensive meme on the wrong day.
I wasn't logged in on a computer, was using Reddit which showed me my local subs by default and the saved login credentials was a different alt.
I was typing a comment reply, realised I wasn't logged and signed in with the other alt, didn't realise it wasn't another local sub and I got suspended Reddit wide for "ban evasion" and nearly lost a decade old major account because a mod in my countries sub abused their position.
I never retaliated, wasn't rude, didn't genuinely try to evade the ban and nearly lost a decade of activity.
There are a lot of benefits to the fediverse and I plan on hosting my own personal instance soon.
