Folks are also taking the machines and hacking them, according to some posts online

Less than two years after self-help company Chicken Soup for the Soul bought Redbox , the corporation declared bankruptcy and now people are taking hundreds of movies out of the mostly abandoned DVD rental kiosks across the country. Some are even, with permission, taking the kiosks themselves. If you’ve visited a CVS or a Walmart since 2013, you’ve likely seen a very large, very red Redbox movie rental kiosk either outside the store or inside the front area.

One person, who removed or “saved” 99 movies from their local Redbox kiosk, had to stop twice because people showed up to return and rent some new movies. It appears not everyone knows that Redbox went bankrupt a few months ago. Some stores have placed signs on the machine warning that Redbox no longer exists, and have unplugged the kiosks, too. The subreddit has some people asking if it’s legal to plug these machines back in.
