    Unfortunately, capitalism demands endless growth

    Nah. Capitalism can contract just fine. It has happened many times before. Do we not read history books around here? It only demands that it not sit still.

    But that’s not actually a feature of capitalism. That’s a feature of competition, which is present in many economic systems (and even where there is a lack of economic systems). Do we not read the work of Marx either?

      Right. And piracy is legitimate competition that enshitification drives users to.

      Just following that free market, right?

        Digital piracy is fundamentally only possible in a non-free market. What’s with all the posting before thinking?

          Go for it, bud.

          Explain it so my inferior intellect can understand.

          How do free market economics completely circumvent digital piracy?

          I am all ears.
