Mainly because sometimes a cigar is just a cigar and it should be enjoyed as such.

Even then it'll probably just be from one town to another very close by thus really only useable for a small subset of people. We need trans continental high speed railways not puddle jumpers

This. Only reason I use Brave is for my iPhone (which I am already planning to jump back to Android when it's time for a new phone) because I can listen to YouTube videos/music in the background and no ads when going through the browser (another reason I'm going back to Android is for Revanced). Everything else is FF

While the authenticity of this is dubious, I don't think OP knows what a pyramid scheme is...

Look up MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) schemes if you need a reference point.

Yup. Pirating is about filling a need where companies sorely lack in providing services. When a company provides a shitty service or offers no viable alternative to obtaining something I would gladly pay for, pirating bridges that gap.

It's not so much that they're out of touch (though they are) as it is that they just don't give a fuck. Any way to return a profit or bump the stock price a few cents is all that matters.

So, any news regarding a tech company is not, in your eyes, "tech news"?

I've said it before and I'll say it again: We have a HUGE Apathy epidemic right now, and it mostly affects younger people (Gen Z on down mostly but some younger millennials too). I think this is mostly because they were born too late to realize that things don't actually have to be this way and could in fact be better if people just...tried. But they've been beaten down and had the phrase "that's just how it is/always been" beaten into them so much that they just stopped caring.

Oh boy, you're in for a wild ride with the Tuvix episode then.
