A new survey from Norway reveals that 50% of young people under 30 believe that pirating content is an acceptable way to save money. The survey, conducted by Ipsos, highlights that the high cost of streaming services is a key driver behind this attitude. Links between piracy and organized crime or malware, appear to be of less concern.

Yeah. I stopped pirating for like 3 years because of Netflix having enough content to occupy me (and I had a he'll of a lot more time on my hands then than I do now). Now Netflix doesn't have shit and everything is spread over a ton of services. I can either constantly be changing subscriptions around or pay like 7$ a month for a VPN and have everything..... Hmmm, tough choice.
