I used to get the light prices on my phone widget via a public api. Some years ago they closed the api and started asking for full name and id in order to get api access. So I just made a scrapper that takes the numbers I want from their website and serves an API for the widget.
That’s the only self made app I self host, but I’m quite proud of it.
Of course. I stand on high moral ground when I chose to pirate.
Economy is broken and anti-consumer. Piracy if the only way I know to balance things of. If I wouldn’t be pirating I would just be letting those economic bullies take advantage of me.
And specially with cultural products there’s another big reason, as I think human culture is to be shared, not sold. I do actually think is inmoral to prevent other humans to freely access anything that could be considered cultural.
