I’m just here for the comments drama. I don’t even care about the reviews. The rest of the comments section is just a huge debate of who’s a real fan and who’s a paid reviewer. Verification doesn’t exist, folks. It’s the wild west. Watch the chaos unfold and grab some popcorn in the process.

The term “safe” has taken on a new meaning. When we first started thinking about safe computing on the TV, our mindset was focused on ensuring that the device would not get a computer virus. Today, that same mindset must extend to the entire home network and all of the personal information that is stored on it. A malicious app or site on one device in the home can serve as a gateway for the rest of the network. One of the biggest benefits of legal apps from official app stores (Google Play, Apple App Store, Roku Channel Store, etc.) is that they have been vetted for security. That peace of mind alone is worth the cost of a subscription.

If they’re smart they’ll go with an audio drama. Its production costs less than a typical animated TV series and with good voice acting and sound design, it can be highly immersive. This could be their first foray into production and I really hope that someone at Desi is considering an exclusive audio series for their site. They already have a written and visual dimension on the site, so an audio dimension could be added to give their fans another way to experience the web novel that they already publish on the site. It has a lower barrier to entry than than typical TV series, a quicker production time and could be used as a ‘proof of concept’ for other bigger productions.

So in the end it is just a tool, a rather flawed, annoying and even unethical one. Use it with due caution and a good ad blocker. Do not expect any customer service, stability or even – for once – perfect dual language subtitles as standard. But when it works it is a nice bonus.

This is particularly sad for a film student such as myself. Each time a movie is streamed illegally online, it distorts statistics. Companies cannot accurately gauge the interest of actual audiences in films. Filmmakers will not receive their fair share of residual payments for their work. Much of the independent cinema being made in India is already struggling to find funding for their movies. This sort of viewing will kill off much of that amazing offbeat cinema. And yes, that one movie that you loved watching on a pirate site (thinking that you were supporting the makers) actually did you a disservice. Your views didn’t contribute to the movie’s success, and so there might not be a next movie from that talented director/actor/writer.

The main problem with watching movies and TV series online are the technical limitations imposed by most online streaming sites. They are usually capped at 480p, which in today’s world of high definition is sub-par. Watching a beautifully shot series of short films like ‘Lust Stories’ or ‘Ghost Stories’ in low video quality completely destroys the impact of the movies.

Quality and conscience are key for me. The mainstream platforms deliver good image quality, fully translated subtitles, carefully curated content, and even extras like interviews and fully restored cuts of films. Sites like filmygod.com are good for surprises like finding very rare films or local stuff that mainstream services haven’t yet put online for various reasons. Films by obscure directors for example that for whatever reason have not yet been digitized by mainstream services.
On the other hand, mainstream websites put a lot of work into preserving editions of movies and providing context to them, such as providing restored versions of a movie, complete cast and crew lists, and even curating lists of movies based on a theme or the films of a particular director. All of this adds a lot of value to the movies they provide and really helps to enhance one’s appreciation for them. This is why I prefer to use aggregator websites like filmygod.com as a last resort to find obscure movies and then try to seek out and purchase or rent those movies through legitimate channels. It’s just easier on my conscience that way.

Do not believe random celebrity photos posted on weird little forums without knowing the source. Celebrity leak culture has a very fuzzy line and Dutta’s fans have been dealing with this for a long time now. With how easy it is to edit photos these days, it’s almost impossible to tell if a photo has been manipulated or not within the first glance. Unless it’s posted by Dutta herself or part of a larger photoshoot posted by a reputable publication, assume all random celebrity photos are photoshopped. I’ve seen really realistic deepfakes of her before. Just remember that the burden of proof is on the person uploading the photos, not on you to verify or debunk them. My rule of thumb is if something feels like an invasion of privacy and is being presented as ‘leaked’ then it’s been either heavily Photoshopped or stolen and shouldn’t be shared by anyone trying to protect artists and their work.

Strange question for the day: Has anyone else had the subtitle toggle simply vanish from their browsers for certain films? I’ve found that on Firefox, the CC button is present for some films but not others (and I’m quite sure those others have subs because I’ve watched them with Chrome to confirm). Is this a browser compatibility issue with their video player or perhaps an unexpected interaction with some ad-blocker software? I’ve tried disabling extensions one by one but to no avail. Anyone experiencing this can try watching the same film in a different browser to see whether the toggle is missing there too. This is just another layer of strange that makes me suspicious that this feature is being treated as an afterthought that isn’t yet fully working.

This brings us to the legal aspect. I can find no legal action, nor any public complaints regarding photo release from anyone connected with Penelope Keith. She is represented by serious and established agents, who would assuredly inform the press of any transgression. Her reputation, maintained over decades of hard work, would, one suspects, be considered too important to be allowed to be seriously tarnished by a misidentified photo or any other such gaff. For this reason, the search for a date to call the photo, allegedly objectionable, is fruitless. Chasing this is something of a non-issue from a legal and PR perspective. All this points to the whole probably being a modern internet fabrication rather than evidence of some hitherto suppressed and possibly very embarrassing incident.
