#Piracy is a #Service Problem.

Piracy will exist as long as #corporate #greed will exist.

If it was my decision #Copyright and #patents would be contingent on the #media / #technology being produced and offered for sale.

  • In fact I think every #claim for #losses should be tossed by any #judge whenever there was no #legal way to obtain a new copy of some content.

Espechally since we live in the #AgeOfAbundance and nowadays the cost for distributing even a #AAA #Game or #Movie is merely the cost of #Storage and #Bandwith, so at worst a whole Euro if we're talking #PayAsYouGo - #Akamai with no minimums to get stuff distributed.

  • We'd be in the single digit cents if we use #P2P technology like #BitTorrent and #IPFS to keep stuff available.

Quartz · No one knows how often health insurers deny claims. Here's whyBy Bruce Gil

Utah Sen. Mike #Lee used his personal X/Twitter account to
🌟amplify a #baseless #claim 🌟that President Joe Biden was having a “medical emergency” on Air Force One.
It’s unclear if Lee tried to verify the falsehood before sharing it with his 224,000 followers.

The claim started with far-right activist and conspiracy theorist Laura #Loomer, who posted without attribution that “Joe Biden is reportedly having a medical emergency on Air Force One. Press access has been removed.”

A Community Note, a tool on X, formerly known as Twitter, that empowers people to add context to misleading posts, *debunked* Loomer’s claim, noting journalists traveling with the president reported 🔸there was no incident, and Biden exited the plane on his own.

“Viasat’s $700 million satellite didn’t completely lose functionality, but it’s not expected to reach its full capacity for beaming Internet to Earth.

“But, instead of replacing it, Viasat said last month that it will submit a $420 million #insurance #claim and manage to meet customer needs with its next two satellite launches.

“Additionally, the company will replace the Inmarasat satellite and submit a $348 million insurance claim this year.”
