What the fuck man... Reread your comment and count to 10, then reread OPs post and consider if this reply isn't toxic as hell.

Couldn't the US nationalize it and then set up an agency to maintain the network/ensure it doesn't get shut off again by Elon Musk?

Edit: Obviously I mean the US should do an imminent domain / purchase first, so they have access to the satellites first, smh.

Both of your comments are tbh. I don't get the sarcasm out of the blue, it just ends up fuelling a nonsense feud.

To add to what burndown said.

Before streaming services were the de facto place to watch movies and TV at home, cable companies would charge a monthly fee to provide live cable TV. TV shows aired weekly and if you miss an episode on Cable, unless you happened to set it to record, you can't watch that episode until the network decides to air it again, hours or days later, what was known as a "rerun."

Cable is a live broadcast sent from the cable provider, (think youtube livestreams that play family guy 24/7) streaming is an on-demand platform for content. So in Canada, if the only place to watch Game of Thrones legally is cable, that limits your viewing time, what episode you watch, and the order in which you watch the show/movies, greatly impacting the viewing experience.

So cable and streaming are separate, cable is more expensive and less enjoyable than streaming, but at the end of the day they're two different methods of watching TV.

Yeap. SAPD shoots and kills a handful of people a year, often times the body cam footage gets posted and nothing gets done. Hopefully things will be different this time, but damn. This is fucked.

I had a close family friend shot and killed by SAPD last year. Not surprised to hear this, but damn.
