No, they're fully aware people get up and eat and go to the restroom during commercials and nothing illegal about that. They expect it. Factor it in. Not morally or legally the same. You're just making excuses for your breaking of the law. If that's the type person you want to be, fine, but do not call something else the same.
dont think for one minute that if they could conceive a way to chain you down during the commercials that there wouldnt be a "law" in place to enforce it.... just go back and look at the dvr lawsuits over being able to skip the commercials when they first came out....you watch something and skip the commercials, doing whatever, all im doing is skipping them with extreme prejudice
and since you seem to be so judgmental towards me over this, let me explain my philosophy a little closer...
though not a religious man per say, i choose to follow a close representation of the 10 commandments, i absolutely follow all the laws that are in benefit of all mankind.... laws that are in place to "protect" a singular entities profit margin i take on a case by case basis...
i am not taking anyones content and re branding it as my own, im not taking it and making a profit from it.... im not using it to entice people to come in to my place of business....im just simply watching it
and that changes absolutely nothing in the big picture, even the stuff i never would have watched otherwise.... it makes no difference at all to anyone, except maybe you for some reason
just please keep in mind, following a law, any law, does not in and of itself make you a just and honorable person,, nor does choosing another route make you a menace to society
well, im done with this thread now, you keep on being judgmental about, i will keep on living my life as a free and unobstructed individual
DISCLAIMER: i dont even own a firestick right now, all the "tv" im watching is done over a netflix and hulu subscription, but i do have a friend with one and have played around with it, and right now that is the way im leaning for the boat
