  • That is an amazing summary. It might not seem that amazing, but I feel like I've read pages about this, but nothing has expressed as elegantly and succinctly.

  • Yeah, but remember how joyful we'd have been if copyright had been this weak in 2003. As long as this flows down to regular people instead of just corps, then copyright won't halt societal development as much as previously anymore. The weakening of copyright is a great thing.

    Just step back into space. Pretend you're so high that you can see your own person from outside yourself, like you are the CCTV camera in the corner. Now look at copyright, the law about the restriction of the right to copy to a select group. It's an absurd sight, like a bad trip.

    This might be relief, we might hopefully get past copyright and patents and just have innovation free for all.

  • It's not exactly the same, but a lot of owners of weird TLDs have got hit with insane renewal fees,.hosting went from $20/y to $300/y overnight.

    Also, some TLDs directly speculate on having very low prices for the first year or two, then 10x it on year 2 or 3.

  • Came here to recommend the same, great video!

  • I can't figure out how to use this, I can't scroll up/down?
