minus-squaredumbass@lemy.lollinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·7 months agoI have found and become a big fan of tv shows that I would have never had the chance to see because of piracy, one of my favourite shows ‘Corner Gas’ never once aired in my home country. Thank you piracy for helping me find good entertainment.
