"DCMA" "worldwide"... dude I know the US feels big, but it's a tiny part of the global jurisdiction. In my country google isn't even available. Where I grew up, software patents were banned and right to copy very protected.
Stop thinking it's a global problem: just like the regular murder of children at school by other children, it's a very american problem. You can absolutely fix it yourself.
- LMYahooTFY 5y agoThis comment just reads as "I find Americans or American-related politics annoying". It's particularly ironic on HN; Internet companies are world wide, and the DMCA is used by them frequently. The OP was entirely accurate with his wording, and you're very off base here.

- TeMPOraL 5y agoUnfortunately, most US problems actually are problems for the entire Western world. The US tends to export its problems - sometimes on the backs of nuclear aircraft carriers (e.g. DMCA and other IP-related regulations, financial regulations), sometimes through culture (e.g. US issues bleeding through to European activists, even though those issues don't exist here, or are nowhere near as problematic).
