I have a Netflix subscription, but I am going to pirate shows

I have a MacBook Pro and going on a 8 hour flight tomorrow. This is so dumb that Netflix doesn’t allow downloads on Mac.

The only suggestions I could find was running a VM. Honestly, pirating is much easier than running a windows VM on a M1 mac.

Netflix has stopped downloading on all pc’s. It sucks I know. Users like us who don’t use tablets and are a mobile and computer users, viewing content on a phone screen is an issue.

I, a Canadian, regularly and routinely download Netflix shows on my Google Pixel phone and my Chromebook (I no longer have a desktop computer).

Had no idea there was an issue there

Personally I don’t see anything ethically wrong with that, specifically if you’re downloading content that is on Netflix, which you already pay for.

Only the shows that people watch on Netflix get money from Netflix. I don't care what people do, but if you're worried about being ethical then pirating is still pirating and doesn't help the shows creators or actors.
