I'm actually faulting them for trying to make money off a crowdsourced service. They didn't write the damn subtitles.
Also, wrong fucking audience. The people using this are pirating.... what do they think is going to happen when they put a paywall in front 😂
Textbook shooting yourself in the foot, I really don't know what they were hoping to gain. You already had a long-lasting reputation in the online community, now you're a fucking scab
They weren't gaining anything with the free service, now they might get a bit of money from it.
