If everyone did that, then they might start cracking down.
At the very least, though, this person should be service hopping instead of paying for 13.
No, the last time everyone did that Netflix was created, which has nearly killed the piracy for most people.
We're just going back to the basics.
Under other US administrations, I'd picture a new model or iteration. Right now? Paramilitary busting down doors and more states banning porn for some reason
Thankfully though, the US != the entire world
Unfortunately, though, they are mostly based out of the US, which means instead of innovating (which is what I think he was implying) they will just make shit more miserable for everyone, but mostly for those in the US. Until US people learn to stop spending money on companies doing harm, we're fucked. Examples are drastic price increases, cracking down on password sharing, and shelving "costly" media instead of trying to improve service.
Just a side note, I haven't personally paid for these services for a long time
