I'm so sick of whiny corporate bitches thinking they deserve $400 million payouts because some website implemented a free digital library of books they already owned so people could still borrow them during COVID when all the libraries were shut down.
Hey I totally understand why they did it, I'm just saying it's not how the law Works around copyright, and that's not changing until we change the law
yes but what you said in reaction to "when sites try to archive information and incredibly rich copyright holders with infinite money and lawyers sue them to the detriment of human wellbeing in order to earn a pittance more to add to their infinite dragon hoard and that's bad" is "you're a whiny bitch."
perhaps it would've been worth considering adding your thoughts on the nuances of how laws bind vs protect people in the original comment?
No, I don't owe it to everyone reading my comments to explain my complete thoughts on everything, people shouldn't be out to try to change everybody's opinions on everything all the time?
Why post an incomplete comment then if you're too lazy lmao
incomplete =/= satiating your desires to understand where I'm coming from
Meaning you couldn't find a way to explain your bullshit boot licker comment that was sufficiently flattering to your ego.
Obvious troll at this point
nope, getting colder
Why are you trying to change my opinion on changing other people's opinion?
Oh, i guess you won't answer that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
