MODERATORS
whatever.EXE doesn't make my eyes roll as hard as anti-piracy screens because the former at least is working with the premise that the thing has been corrupted by demons and thus isn't supposed to be realistic. Anti-piracy screens often want you to suspend your disbelief that Nickelodeon, Babyfirst TV or anything else aimed toward kids or even free and publicly available like PBS would jumpscare kids with pictures of their mascots bleeding from the eyes because piracy bad.
