Part of me hopes the total lack of IP protection makes this only an economic protection & an entirely useless cultural barrier. Stop adjusting for closed societies! They never get better! Be your own good open society! Hope, help coax the barriers lower. But be brilliant & yourself. And stop trying to appease the unappeasable closed totalitarians. Hollywood losing the profit incentive could be one of the best things for the world.

I think I understand and agree with what you're saying, but I needed a moment to really make sure I understood it. These are the questions that came up for me: >Stop adjusting for closed societies! They never get better! Is the closed society Chinese society under the CCP, or American society under the DCMA? >Be your own good open society! Hope, help coax the barriers lower. Is the good open society the IP protection-less Chinese one under the CCP, or the American one? Which has more innovation? >But be brilliant & yourself. And stop trying to appease the unappeasable closed totalitarians. Is it the communists or the capitalists who are the totalitarians?

  > Is the closed society Chinese society under the CCP, or American society under the DCMA? It's the one building large scale concentration camps in an effort to wipe out a minority part of their society.

    Yeah look we're all upset about what's happening on the southern border and that Biden didn't close the camps but calling them 'concentration camps' is a bit much, don't you think?

  Closed CCP government (not a fairly minor DMCA which also includes colossal opening factors like section 230). Good open society where the government doesn't monitor all communication systems for wrong think & have reeducation camps. The communists are the totalitarians, being a one party system & suppressing minority cultures & using vast force & subversion to illegally take control of Hong Hong against agreed terms & being a sore child about every little geopolitical issue they can.
