I thought this was a great argument initially, but the counter here would be that in the case of Hollywood, both parties would be agreeing to perpetual copies. In the case of piracy, that isn't the case.

I think the argument against digital copies of actors is that the studios tend to have most of the power in negotiations, so it's less of an agreement and more of a coercion.

[-] marx2k@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I agree. But ultimately the actor does consent. So the dynamics are different than with the meme being presented.

Same logic in consent can be applied to an adult/child sexual relationship.

The situation is the same as the actor (child) cannot consent due to having no power.

[-] marx2k@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe. But that still differs from the single party consent in piracy.

The original point was that I initially thought the meme posed a good argument but then maybe not so much when doing a comparison
