What is '白嫖(bái qiāo)' mean in Chinese Slang?

This term literally means "white嫖" (嫖 refers to prostitution, but here it’s used metaphorically). It describes getting something for free without contributing or paying, often in a cheeky or shameless way. It’s like saying, "freeloading" or "mooching."

Example: If someone watches a paid streaming service using someone else’s account, you might say, "Stop 白嫖 and pay for your own subscription!"

Fun fact: The term is often used in gaming or online communities to describe players who benefit from others’ efforts without contributing.
