Enshittification and piracy - Zorrpu URL

I've always been pro piracy. The first time I remember pirating something was when I was 11, and I used to download Pokemon game ROMs on my phone. I believe people being able to access the media they love is almost always a benefit to society.
I've recently noticed a huge spike in piracy amongst people in my personal life who I never would've imagined being interested in doing that kind of thing. I think this is due to the services they usually use for consuming media, mainly movies and TV, becoming so poor that it actually becomes a better experience to simply pirate the media then it is to navigate these annoying and expensive services.
I for one, am absolutely thrilled about this though, as it means I get to teach my mom how to commit minor crimes

I'm someone who tries to avoid piracy personally (though I don't judge others) but man, it feels like some companies nowadays are purposefully trying to drive people to it!

I have always wanted to try playing Miitomo via Kaerutomo, but I played on an Apple device, which would need to be jailbroken in order to play legitimately. At the same time, if I try to do so on Android using an apk, I fear that I would get into trouble. I honestly don't know what to do.
For the record, I am also generally pro-piracy.
