@angiebaby I am a socialist. I believe the structure of society is the most important factor in deciding the kind of future we are going to get.

Applies to technology as much as everything else.

The creators have no value when they are not rich. Hence we get technology that steals from them. Even if other kind of tech that doesnโ€™t would be within reach right now.

But there is no incentive to develop that technology, as we donโ€™t have strong structures protecting the creators.

@angiebaby I am looking for a torrent client which advertizes itself as AI crawler. So I can legally download everything.

@angiebaby
Aaron Swartz was arrested and aggressively charged for downloading academic papers and ultimately committed suicide.

Different rules.

@MSugarhill @pavel @angiebaby yes, transmission (with 100%) was local and aria2 on a hetzner server. And I got the file on the server.
To make the upload work I had to open ports on my firewall. Usually closed.
