The IT Crowd - Piracy warning
The IT Crowd - Piracy warning
Sorry to link to YouTube for this, but it's just such a great example of actual humor from the decades where it was allowed to joke about it.
-
So in your opinion you can't make yokes about piracy nowerdays? How did you get to that conclusion?
I honestly don't even think this is that edgy of a sketch ...
-
I don't get where OP is going with this either?
-
Perhaps some overzealous reference to the fact that Graham Linehan is a massive wanker, butthurt transphobe. The way you "can't really make rape/racist/sexist/transphobic jokes anymore". He doesn't really make TV anymore. This skit on the other hand, as well as most of Father Ted and The IT Crowd, is perfectly PG.

Crap, I've known this skit back from when YouTube had 5-star rating system on videos, and learned it comes from The IT Crowd just today
-
YouTube's 5-star rating system... It's been a while since that was a thing. YouTube sure felt more fun back then.
-
and then steal it agaiiiiiin!

The IT Crowd basically cemented itself as timeless by never directly referencing anything super techy that would date it. Sure, there's a guitar hero controller and an xbox 360 in a lot of shots, as well as some 4:3 laptops, but that's about it.
-
There is that one episode where they go into intense detail about how the Internet functions. They even show it!
-
Duh! It's wireless!
-
-
I’ve got friends who still play games on their computers with an XBOX360 controller!

What you forgot to mention is that someone bought the original piracyisacrime.com domain as printed on your DVD. They made it redirect to The IT Crowd piracy scene :d

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
https://piped.video/watch?v=ALZZx1xmAzg
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Good robot.
-
I know we have piped bot, but you can just pink the piped version then you won't have to apologise for it.
-
I prefer people posting the original source, and I'll just let LibRedirect (on desktop) or LibreTube (on mobile) switch the link to my preferred Piped instance. I don't want to use random instances.
I feel like most people who feel strongly against YouTube will have it set up similarly to where you automatically get redirected when clicking a link anyways. You can always offer up a Piped link in the text box or the comments as an alternative.
