But someone puts a digital clock on the front and loads a pirate TV app on it, now it’s worth $250 or $350. And the hardware isn’t illegal, just like burglar tools and lock cutters aren’t illegal. And I notice these magic free TV box companies don’t say anything about being able to watch network affiliates and cable channels and NFL and Netflix for free on their website, they put that on their social media site and Youtube videos. Plausible deniability anyone? Yet I get carded if I buy a can of spray paint at Home Depot. You never know, I might be that criminal Banksy.

They make people think that for the added price they get all the content for free. I suppose they sort of do, but there is certainly a non-zero chance it will become unavailable within months of the purchase.
