    Idk about others, but Singapore doesn’t really have socialized healthcare.

    We pay for it with our salaries into an account and the hospitals use that when necessary.

    But we have all the luxury to have personal insurance and it doesn’t really cost too much if you have a proper job and all. Coverage is pretty decent too.




  • Before Netflix took hold, piracy was extremely accessible.

    Even the less tecy savvy could easily download a client and there were numerous websites with ease to multiple files. Google search was throwing out torrent files in the hundreds.

    Now since Netflix, that activity had died down and people wanted the convenience of being able to stream anywhere and ease of access. Piracy became limited to those that only really want to do it.

    Now if these activities push it, the floodgates may reopen and people may start coming up with even easier ways to pirate. Kodi for example becoming super easy to access.
