Argument works for any regulation and creates a race to the bottom. Let's against with cars, Australia made a law saying that you can't sell a lawnmower with a seat duct taped on top as a car.
1. Australia banned LWASDTOT
2. Australian companies forced to use more expensive actual cars
3. USA, Chinese, Indian, etc... companies will sell LWASDTOT
4. Australian companies couldn't compete and folded
5. Major job loss in Australia
Etc...
Also works against India banning scam call centers, Russia banning cybercrime, and so on. Heck, hacking is already banned in the USA, think about how many more jobs they could have if that wasn't the case!
- tticvs 4mo agoBad strawman, worse reasoning. Obviously if the benefits of the regulation outweigh the cost then it's worth it. In this case the vast majority of the benefit accrues to non-germans (because the German population is small and few Germans profit from copyrighted music) but the loss will accrue only to Germans (since they can't use Suno).
