Wrecked By Tech

Is piracy in jeopardy?


Listen Later

In this week's episode (minus Riley), the guys talk about a possibly precedent-setting case for pirates in Canada; a fake mobile version of Cuphead; Bell's attempt to circumvent CRTC rules about unlocking phones; Twitter's attempt to crack down on hateful, violent, or abusive content.

Speed round:

-Someone made a bunch of old games play as though they were Nokia Snake
-No, a guy didn't make $1 million selling Chuck E Cheese tokens.
-Plex came up with a Winamp player
-There's a game on iPhone X you can control with your eyebrows
-NBC might bring back the office
