"as part of the 2009 DMCA rulemaking" is talking about something that happened before the DMCA was passed? Hint: the DMCA was passed in 1998.
>I think I'm going to stop responding now, because you're pretty obviously on auto-pilot.
I don't know if you're projecting or trolling.
- JohnHaugeland 14y agoAh, personal attacks.
- pessimizer 14y agoWhat part of "the DMCA was passed in 1998" is a personal attack? It's not like he said: "Please actually read the links you give when arguing. It's especially important because the links you're giving should be your first hints that you're wrong. However, you're so certain that you're right that you aren't even checking." OR "I think I'm going to stop responding now, because you're pretty obviously on auto-pilot." Are you in a manic phase or something?
- JohnHaugeland 14y ago"What part of "the DMCA was passed in 1998" is a personal attack?" The part where he says projecting or trolling. I guess I have a pretty similar reaction to you, where when I say I'm walking away because he's not listening to me, you infer mental illness. Sometimes it's best to keep it a little calmer. Someone doesn't have to be mentally ill to walk away from someone accusing them of being a troll. I hope you'll consider whether that phrasing was actually appropriate. Please have a good day.
