Hey, good on you for learning things and admitting you were wrong.

Next time avoid statements like “stay on topic. You just proved you don’t understand the nuance I’m talking about” and you won’t look like such an ass when you actually read the article and realize you were wrong in the first place.

So you admit that I do own my likeness now?

Just catching up to the where I was in the first place? The argument you were so insistent was wrong and proved I “Didn’t understand”?

This is on the same level as “You can rob a store then when the cops come to your house say you were never there. They can’t arrest you if you weren’t at the scene of the crime.”

Lying is not a legal defense.

You just proved you don’t understand the nuance I’m talking about.

Translation: “I don’t have a rebuttal for your argument so I’m going to pretend it’s off topic.”

If you actually had an argument to make you would explain how the nuance was misunderstood and clarify what you meant. “You clearly don’t understand” just screams that you don’t have any foundational arguments for your claims.

You want to us to stay on topic?

Judge Beryl A Howell of the DC Circuit Court upheld a US Copyright Office ruling that works created by “AIs” are not eligible for copyright protection.

A work not being eligible for copyright protection does not mean it nullifies existing protections. If someone uses AI to generate an image of Ronald McDonald punching Mickey Mouse in the face and tries to sell it on a shirt they will get sued by both McDonald’s and Disney and they will lose easily.

“The courts have declared I don’t own the copyright for this” is not a defense for using protected images.

“there’s a nuanced difference between owning your likeness and owning a drawing of your likeness…”

So like, $5?

People will presure companies not to allow it. “I will not purchase your product because it is helping fund hate speech”

It doesn’t matter that the company did not choose to place the ad there. The ad being there gives money to platform that they are recieving because of hate speech.

Still dealing with weirdos on Lemmy who have nothing better to do than stalk my profile and try to pick fights with me elsewhere if I dare to disagree with them on a post, so not much has changed…

Don’t drive traffic to Reddit. The only way to “Troll” Spez is to not use Reddit at all. He doesn’t care what people are saying about him and long as they are engaging with the website.

I noticed r/all has changed drastically and showing less popular subs.

More space was taken up by flags than by protests.

You’re going to have to give up one or the other.

Also: “I can’t find any info online to back that up” Is a clue. Asking randos online isn’t going to change the lack of evidence for what your want to believe.

Fine should be more than the cost of the permit, otherwise there’s no reason to get a permit. Just do it anyway and if caught pay the fine.

It’s not just Trans people, it’s people who aren’t masculine or feminine enough. The bigots are fine with this.

Netflix is forgetting that a large part of their success was due to being more convenient than piracy.
When prices went up a lot of people kept their subs because they didn’t want to kick family members off of it that they were sharing with.

If Netflix becomes less convenient than piracy and no one else is using my account I see no reason to keep it

Actually, Musk didn’t want to pay anything for Twitter, but was willing to pay $44 billion to avoid the discovery process.

Nah, there were great minds behind the creation of Deep Thought.

Entitled in what way? They no longer liked how the service was being offered to them and stopped using it?

Corona wasn’t supporting the virus, it just happened to have the same name. If Corona experienced any loss of sales because of the name then people are incredibly stupid.
