The entire original comment chain that lead to what I replied to … was all about playing word games with slogans, progoganda, public relations.

The law may be ‘clear’, but it is clearly bullshit.

It is absurdly deferential toward the rights of megacorps and hostile to the rights of consumers.

Laws are supposed to reflect and codify morals and ethics, arise from them… not determine them.

But, as we slip more and more into a cyberpunk dystopia of hypercapitalist megacorps being able to basically just buy legislators, judges and laws, it will become more evident that the government is just entirely a facade directed by them.

This whole article is about a lawsuit in America, you know, the land of the fee, home of the early and very expensive grave?

The place with the ongoing fascist coup that’s dismantling all the government agencies that regulate corporations, after the richest man in the world just bought an election, and more recently openly tried to buy a state judge, and though he didn’t succeed, will likely face no penalty for doing that very obviously illegal thing?

Also, as far as at least acquring a pirated game?

Its not that hard.

Now hosting them? Sharing them?

Yep, you’re right, that’s a bit more difficult… but hey, be clever enough to not get caught, and thats the same as being rich enough to write your own laws.
