I could be wrong but isn't it essentially impossible to pirate modern versions of Adobe Creative Suite products as they're now cloud based, meaning the only versions you can pirate are around 10 years old?
Yea interspecies sex will become as mainstream as porn today.
It might take a while to become acceptable to most people and some will be against it forever, but people will be trying to use this tech for bestiality as soon as it becomes available.
I think if it turns out that most animals are able to communicate to the same level humans are we'll end up with conflict between meat eaters and vegans, at least for a few generations.
If we've already got affordable lab grown meat options it'll probably just be old people who don't trust lab meat or aren't really able to comprehend that we can talk to animals and nobody will take them seriously.
People would probably protest or maybe take direct action if we don't have affordable lab meat but may eventually be placated if insects are unable to communicate and we develop convincing meat like insect protein forms.
But if we don't have either of those alternatives I think that there could be a straight up war between (probably religious zealot) meat eaters and vegans.
This conflict would die out with subsequent generations but there may still be a "real" meat black market.
But imagine if we can employ an animal to help us say build a house or a ship. It could change our lives entirely.
For me it was the Simpsons when I was a kid and a relative would record it off satellite TV for me. It just carried on from there. I started recording stuff off TV myself, recording music on audio cassettes and eventually copying VHS tapes.
Then I got a PSX console and my parents "knew a guy" who burned games.
After that I heard about Napster and started downloading MP3s on the family PC. When Napster was shut down I moved onto other apps like Kazaa and Limewire.
Then I got a DVD burner. At first I just copied DVDs but when I got broadband I started downloading torrents and burned the files to DVDs.
About 10 years ago I started storing those files on a NAS. Planning on moving to Jellyfin in the next few weeks.
I use a wyse terminal as a torrent downloader and samba server. I stored documents, including my CV on there until recently but started thinking that might be a bad idea. So now I sync those documents between my devices using Syncthing and will soon be installing Jellyfin on that wyse terminal.
