Frankly combining the recent and less recent events - I think fuck them.

I can understand selling a book or a movie and it being theft to download a copy. It's at least logically consistent - you show someone something with a condition that they pay you, it's dishonest to look and not pay.

But owning characters and universes and their names and so on?

And these laws not being used against "AI" firms?

All at the same time?

No. Right is about compromise. They don't do that, so we don't owe them anything. And let them obey what is made for their benefit first.

Imagine bankrupting world's economy 10 times by copying movies over and over for one day.
