Oop, here we go. The beginning of the end. The piracy website wants your data

Oop, here we go. The beginning of the end. The piracy website wants your data

This kind of shit always makes me laugh.
Do they not realize the kind of site they are? People who pirate are just gonna jump ship (no pun intended) to the next piracy site that doesn't fuck around.

There's like a hundred alternatives anyway

Oh, yeah? List them.

Anon Babble started asking for emails and people still come here.

he isnt using CLI to watch his favorite toons

NGMI

use wco with adblocker

eventually asks to turn off blocker to watch shit

begrudgingly accept, they need the money i suppose

then asks to make an account and PAY A SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE to watch PIRATED MOVIES

what the fuck??

muh data!!!1

lmao

The US government already has all my shit because I served so it doesn't really matter. But this? It's about the principle, I don't do illegal things so I can leave a trail back to me.

can't right click images so they can't be saved

now can't drag the image into a new tab to save the image that way

now can't load all the pages all at once unless you make an account and login

It's weird how many tactics a site uploading rips of comics uses to keep people from taking pages from it. It's a shame because it has so many comics, especially old and hard to find ones. I'm reminded of Sankaku Complex having a great online gallery getting progressively worse over the years.

I hate the transparent watermarks they started putting over some panels. It makes screencapping and cutting parts of the comic really annoying.

>now can't drag the image into a new tab to save the image that way

Oh shit they finally stopped that? Fuck that site then. Dead to me. That was one of their best features.

Any good alternatives bros?

this has been happening for a long time, shame on you for just finding out about it.

You can just wait and not use an email

>now can't drag the image into a new tab to save the image that way

for any site that does this i installed an enable right click extension

Unfortunately even that doesn't work on the site. Saving and even copying the page only gets me the single pixel.

ah yea, i've ran into that on one or two sites
shit's fucked. the internet is such a headache for basic features anymore. don't forget the webp bullshit. i even have an extension for "save as png" now. i can't believe how aggravating it is to just do the simplest shit online anymore

Is this Readcomiconline? Wasn't it bad enough when they deleted decades of people's comments for no good reason? For fucks sake.

Yeah that was bizarre. Years of history, gone in a snap

Demonoid was like this for close to 20 years

Name some

It used be way worse last year for a week you couldn't even watch an episode five minutes in until a message would pop saying you need a account to watch

wait FIVE MINUTES??

now can't drag the image into a new tab to save the image that way

wait, they changed that?? fucking hell, I noticed that yesterday but thought it was just some kind of bug with the specific comic I was reading.

tfw I got the the .ru source by mistake on Mihon and it ended up being a much more reliable RCO than this RCO

nice try glowie

Yeah that one is good but not as complete.

They don't get any money from this, what's happening is that scrapers for AI companies aggressively download data from independent sites, so much so that they can DDOS or double the hosting costs for these sites. They're probably getting hit pretty hard and can't afford to let users load hundreds of pages at once without verification that they're human.

it's 15

watching on shitty streaming site

you deserve this

dude, sometimes when I'm traveling, the site gets all humpty and makes you wait 900 seconds (15 minutes?!). Still, I'm not going to give 4ch my fucking e-mail address. I don't need to call an anon a faggot that badly.

then asks to make an account and PAY A SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE to watch PIRATED MOVIES

Yeah...same energy as AI idiots wanting to copyright their "work", doing commissions, and getting upset when people steal their shit.

What site is this?

Learn python. Automate your scraping.
If you're manually performing any repetitive task, you should write a script to do it for you. If you've never done anything with code it probably sounds like some hacker shit, but python is made to be super user friendly.
I'm not a software engineer by any stretch of the imagination, but having rudimentary coding skills is super handy and makes your life a lot fucking easier if you deal with computers on a regular basis (which describes basically everyone these days).

It's a comic site, actually

don't forget the webp bullshit. i even have an extension for "save as png" now

never occurred to me that there might be an extension for that, thanks for the tip lol

Can someone tell me which website to use for reading books and biographies and that shit?

pirate streaming is dumb but comics are way more niche and don't have nearly as many reliable options, plus RCO has the biggest library out of most of the other places so it sucks when they do retarded shit like this.

Psh I can just go to another site or google what I want.

My heart goes out to them but stuff like that will drive away people. We've seen it happen time and time again. When a website makes browsing less convenient, they lose a chunk of their visitors.
