- Comment on California’s new law forces digital stores to admit you’re just licensing content, not buying it 2 months ago:
Yeah, hence why I said that technically the license can be revoked. Enforcing that is another matter. Without going into the weeds, we need to rethink how to handle it. At minimum, we need to make sure that if the license is revoked not from breaking ToS, the Copyright/IP holder must refund the purchase too. The copyright/ip holder still has the right to their creation but the consumer is also protected via those refund. It is indeed not bulletproof but whether you like it or not, copyright/ip protection is needed to some extent.
- Comment on California’s new law forces digital stores to admit you’re just licensing content, not buying it 2 months ago:
On the basis of technicality, it will depend very wildly on the ToC of said intellectual property. As you said, GOG just distributes the installer and that is it, the IP holder can technically revoke your/GOG license if that is in the ToC somewhere.

- Comment on Whales 5 months ago:
Well, maybe he refers to the branch with the greatest common ancestor of us and whales. So our branch of evolution can have mating calls 100KM rather than their branch with measly 80KM
- Comment on Do your neighbour's security cameras make you uncomfortable? Here's what you can do 5 months ago:
Oh you mean privately owned cctv that faces public place. Yeah, I agree it is questionable since public spaces are the jurisdiction of law enforcement. But I can also see it as someone with a hobby of hoarding data, archivists, and the other extreme being as you said, voyeur. But there is no way of knowing hence I also understand your irks towards it.
