I'll second this with the caveat that if you're gonna go hog wild and download a LOT of games, get a vpn so your isp doesn't get mad. but if you're getting one game and maybe another every few months, you're too small of small fry for anyone to care

I learned about how to pirate books from my college professor who got students to download a book from Z library.

Okay I thought we were pirating games from elsewhere because Fitgirl is pro Israel? Now that I've typed that out, it sounds like a fever dream.

It's news to me. I did see a Twitter thread about it when I googled it but she isn't on the BDS list as far as I can tell (lol)
