killed himself because he scraped research data and they aggressively prosecuted him.

Now companies say they should scrape our data for free.

tech companies aggressive defend against scraping their data, technically and legally, while they claim free access to ours

if you're looking for a sense of hypocrisy, know that they have no sense of right and wrong. $$$ for exploitation is their game, and that is all there is to them

@benroyce Copyright is overreaching :-(. Hopefully that is solved one day.

@pavel

that's a good topic

copyright as a tool of capitalism is a failure

but we also don't want actual artists exploited without benefit

how do we reach a middle ground?

@pavel @benroyce if copyrights were free there’s be no money in stealing them to sell to someone else. Microsoft has ruined people’s lives for the temerity of calling out Microsoft’s IP theft.
