    Most content (excluding their own) is not available in all regions due to licensing issues.

    Actually, even including their own for some dumb reason. For instance, Paramount holds the rights to Star Trek, but there’s no way for me to stream some of the shows legally, because Paramount+ isn’t available where I live.

    Which to me makes no sense. It’s just a freaking website, globally accessible, hosting content they own…

      Expanding to other countries can probably be a bit complicated and maybe they don’t feel like it’s worth it.

      Personally I barely care about copyright laws, and in cases like these I don’t give a single fuck. I won’t call the piracy justified like the deranged people in r/piracy (and especially it’s Lemmy equivalent) would. It’s not like I deserve to watch the content or anything, I just don’t care
