I thought the comments from Reddit user SquirtyBottoms were especially based…

User SquirtyBottoms said, “[l]ike everyone else I miss Grande and I’m stuck with Spectrum or AT&T in my area. I use Spectrum. Those fuckers have turned my connection off completely on one occasion and would not turn it back on until I agreed to stop pirating media.”

Back when I was young and stupid, my ISP had a 3 strike program before they just terminated your entire contact.

roboweiner says, “I have Grande and torrent a lot. Always thought it was pretty cool of them to not snitch.”
