Basically if you share your password for paid services or use someone else's, you're a federal criminal.

One step closer to a cyberpunk dystopia.

Just because it's illegal, doesn't mean they'll actually enforce it.

cyberpunk is already here
just without the cool aesthetics
>>55531563
All that's missing are personal armies, corporations that can do whatever they want and Kill anyone they want, and making hacking the death penalty.
>>55531575
They won't go doorbusting for it but it's just one more thing they can tack on your record/jailtime if you get arrested period.

nice country lads desu

I'm an American citizen, and I do not defend this.
Then explain why they added multiple screen accounts if they didn't want you to share?

gee i dunno maybe if you have more than 1 tv in your house lol
>>55531657
So everyone INSIDE the same house can watch at the same time
I'm surprised they haven't added an IP lock to that shit yet.
>>55531689
pirating is still illegal
>OP links to a pastebin
>decide to google the news title and see if it actually exists
>it's actually about a guy who left the company but still had access to their database and so kept using it illegally
The newstitle is astoundingly misleading and you guys better not be this retarded.

>making hacking the death penalty.
Rulings like this make that sort of thing more and more possible. As corporations gain more leverage over the state they will start using it to enrich themselves to an even greater extent than they doing now.
>>55531563
Skynet when?
>>55531323
>TFW the US Government tries to stop a crime they can't prevent.
>>55531743
Soon.
>>55531563
Well cyberpunk is already here, we just need to work on making the country shittier and more dystopia like.
>>55531742
Holy slippery slope, Batman!

This theme is very recurrent on the series
>On July 5th , the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued an opinion which found, in part, that sharing passwords is a crime prosecutable under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA).
>issued an opinion
No legal decision made, no precedent set
It's fucking nothing. Everyone who fell for OP's bait can kill themselves.

Actually read about it you stupid, idiotic retards.
The decision was that it is illegal to share the password of someone WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE SYSTEM OWNER.
Meaning, I can't share my mom's Netflix password with my friend without her consent.
>>55532585
Except the person's password they were sharing was in on it. You would need Netflix's consent.
Feels good to live in a free country.
>>55531634
>wifes boyfriend
>>55531703
An IP lock wouldn't work, since you can watch Netflix on the go.
>>55532645
india sure is a great country.
>>55532591
>Except the person's password they were sharing was in on it
Except no they weren't. SYSTEM OWNERS consent, not user.
He used an ex-coworkers password to access business network, he didn't have permission from the owner, ie his ex-boss.
>>55531323
Always was a felony in my state. Netflix have said they don't care.
>>55531607
>All that's missing are personal armies
Blackwater
>corporations that can do whatever they want
Telecoms and Oil companies, desu
>>55532934
It's not so much about them caring as the studios caring. They've proven they're the studios little bitch recently with the crackdown on VPNs.
If the studios start complaining about account sharing netflix will bend over backwards to please them
>>55532932
>he didn't have permission from the owner, ie his ex-boss.
ie Netflix. You don't own your Netflix account nor the Netflix server that you're accessing.

Did he actually fucking use "bae" in a news article?
>>55533096
lying convincingly is *really* hard for autistic people, so a lot of people on /g/ rightly figure they can't do it.
then again, sharing your password is a social thing. something tells me very few people on /g/ engage in that practice.
>>55531607
We're not far from it, honestly
