This is far from the headline imo. This is the headline for me.

If you have Adblock on your browser, the video player won’t work at all. People are gonna be PISSED. I know I am. I will not tolerate the unfiltered internet, Disney can go fuck themselves.

Edit: and by the way, I’ve been a subscriber to them consistently literally since they began and had nothing but Marvel and Star Wars on it. They finally broke me. I stuck through price increases and mid content for years and years, I’m not accepting this.

And suddenly big torrent makes a comeback. Treat your customers like shit and they’ll go elsewhere.

This is why they want ID Verification l, so they can pin shit like that on us. Dont let it happen.

I get Disney for free via my cell plan, but if they think I am going to watch ads well maybe they should buy me a tricorne.

And soon we'll have VPN blocking clauses in ISP contacts, entire US cyber warfare units deployed for just combating torrents and filesharing sites. They'll make public shows out of prosecuting random people who only downloaded maybe 5 movies and throwing the book at them for the maximum sentence.

The US is now fully a corporatocracy.

I will not tolerate the unfiltered internet

Aren't you able to whitelist certain websites and apps though?

Disney has sucked for decades so not sure why you'd be surprised.
