i could give examples of both paid and unpaid and have them shot down as "this is crap writing". instead i will simply point out that there is very popular unpaid fiction on the internet, and its popularity is indicative of its

Most is awful, but I'd still say there's just as much good unpaid fiction as paid fiction. Lots of paid fiction is also really, really bad.

Am I the only one that finds reporting annoying when they boldly imply things as fact, and the source is anonymous "people familiar with the matter"? We have no way to assign the probability or legitimacy of these opinions when ze

why not? people write fiction all the time and put it on the internet for free. in fact, i'd say there's significantly more unpaid fiction writing in the world than paid.

I spent 10+ minutes trying to find anything Trump has said on camera about the copyright office, and went through the only video I could find of Trump on air force one in the past week to see any references to this, and saw none.

I will also add: there are tons of examples of companies taking down not for profit fanction or fan creation of stuff. Nintendo is very aggressive about this. The publisher of Harry Potter has also aggressively taken down not for profit fan

Copyright isn't about distribution, it's about creation. In reality the chances of getting in trouble is basically zero if you don't distribute it - who would know? But technically any creation, even in private, is violating

Disney has a copyright over Moana. I would argue Moana is an idea in the sense that most people think of as ideas. Moana isn't tangle, it's not a physical good. It's not a plate on my table. It only exists in our heads. If I

what perspective do you have on their actions outside of what corporate media says, which is constantly attacking both of them? if we're going to say "let's look at the actions" then let's look at what they're

I don't think it's as black and white as that. Giving messaging to an LLM and asking "How can I say this more clearly or more kindly?" gives valuable feedback to how you're communicating and how it could be done bet
