Fuck Empress, however she's right on this specific matter.
I guess if you lash out at absolutely everybody, eventually one of them will do something to deserve it.
What's wrong with empress? I really don't follow this stuff much.
Long but great write up https://www.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama/comments/rowk83/digital_piracy_the_rise_of_empress_how_one_woman/

Wow, thanks for sharing this chunk of internet lore. I never torrented any games so I didn't know there was so much more behind it than torrenting movies.

Ooh they didn't like this one
I wouldn't go that far, but he does make great indie music
