Legal streamers turning to piracy...

I thought they would be discussing subscribers who were already shelling out for Amazon Prime, HBO Now and Netflix turning to piracy for Disney+. However, the only example the cited was a film that that was still in the cinema.

Typically, such films would be hosted on streaming sites shortly after the theatrical run ends. I'm sure their faulty logic is that they were time-shifting from the future. It doesn't fly, as piracy doesn't financially support the film. Producers don't get paid because Netflix put it in their catalog. Producers get paid because you actually clicked "Play" from within the Netflix app. That and the legal and malware issues that are rampant on piracy sites ... Not worth it.

5G is a fraud

FCC on the internet access and speed issues is a fraud.

5G is a massive scam perpetrated upon the American public. Many places in the US can't even
access 4G service....

Lets not forget a large number of the US population that has NO access to the internet even still
since they have no wired connection, no wireless connections and satellite isn't viable.
