i'm all for abolishing copyright on the first day after we have introduced mechanisms that allow the artists to actually earn decent money from ther work taking into account the specifics of the work. and no, UBI doesn't count.

it's not “hating your post history”, it's just realisation that you're a shitty debatelord and talking to you is waste of time.

from the “i'll drm your arse” and “industrial sabotage r us” department, a true scandal: a polish train manufacturer used firmware to lock out trains at 3rd party service depots in order to disrupt the operations of the trains for the railways who did not choose to service the trains at the manufacturer's; at the same time they blamed the 3rd parties for their inability to properly service the trains.
