- Comment on Itch.io was taken down by funko pop 1 week ago:
How does one steal Funko Pop’s IP? Create an ugly figure with a giant head and no face? Is that so common that they need an AI system to watch for IP infringement?
If a company wanted to get into the figuring business, maybe they could just make figures that look good, and thus avoid infringing Funko Pop’s style.

- Comment on Please ban data caps, Internet users tell FCC 1 month ago:
Throttling everyone equally during times of congestion is also fair in its own way. I’d be okay with that.
- Comment on Please ban data caps, Internet users tell FCC 1 month ago:
When limiting is required, because many people are using the same network, limiting those who have already used the most seems fair.

- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 7 months ago:
This is so stupid. Isn’t this a free-to-play game? With one-time-purchase games you can try to fool people, then take your money and leave while people complain about the game behind you.
But this is a free-to-play game, they intend to make money by gradual ongoing revenue from in-game purchases, etc. You can’t fool people who are actively playing the game.
The contract hurts their image, and prevents them from receiving critical feedback.
