The CEO was a fucking hack. Good riddance.
He straight up said 'movie pirates are worse than drunk drivers' at one point.
I don't know about any of you, but I'm pretty sure media pirates haven't killed people with their negligence.
If you recall the campaign, if you pirate movies then the money left over after the production executives buy their yachts isn't enough to pay the people that actually made the film. Those hard working people, not paid for their part in a successful film, go to the bar and drink. Having lost all sense of tolerance, they end up driving home drunk. You see where this is going... Once home they post online about not getting paid. Had pirates not stolen the movies, executives wouldn't have to suffer the pain of having to hear about the poors that they enslave being upset about their wages. Won't anyone think of the executives?!
