The Big [Censored] Theory

The solution to this is, of course, piracy. I'm glad people like those on /r/DataHoarder preserve media in their complete forms so I don't have to watch them censored.

A recent example is Community which has an episode of a character dressing as a dark elf, and the joke is that another character assumes it's blackface, even though it's not. Well, networks and streaming services now removed it and unless you have the original discs, you simply can't watch that episode.

Unless, of course, you pirate it, which is how I watched it.

Brutalitops!

And of course Netflix has started covertly editing older episodes of their series.

There may come a day where the Berenstain Bears Mandela effect is the result of a legitimate conspiracy to change all the publicly available media.

Anyone in China? Do they still have those dvd carts on the streets? Or did they lose out to streaming?

What about torrents and such? Have they been blocked by the firewall or is pirated movies still readily available online?

Advanced Dungeons and Dragons is currently available on Prime Video. I don't know that they edited it there.

No DVD carts, but NAS is somewhat popular. Xunlei or BaiduPan is insanely popular.

That episode is one of the very best of the show too. I had to pirate it.

I watched the whole series through a month ago and I didn't know this episode existed until someone told me it was on prime. It is unedited!

I’m assuming NAS is a local server with a hard drive.

What is is Xunlei and BaiduPan?

In fact, you can paste a .torrent file into your baidu drive and it’ll download the torrent for you right into your drive. If someone else has already downloaded the same torrent then it basically appears instantly.

The catch is that the only fast way to download files from your baidu drive is to install the client on your computer, which I’d only do inside a VM.

downloader software and storage service.
