idc if "Nintendo is doing bad shit with copyright" is a petty reason to want revolution I want it now.

also i recently learned how like half of the Japanese hololive vtuber's stream archives were wiped out (mostly privated and people swear they'll come back but its been 4 months) because of capcom being shitty with copyright too and the hololive company going batshit insane in overcompensating. I dont even watch vtubers (though im starting to get interested in them) but I do get super fucking anxious about deleted content being gone forever so the faster we can get to revolution and end that shit the better thanks love draggo.

it seems to me that IP laws and copyright stand as a big impediment to efficient progress. Ideally in a socialist country "trade secrets" would be open knowledge so that anyone could work to improve it, similarly to free and open source software paradigms.

I think it's fine for people to receive recognition for/own their art and music and stuff like that but I'd like to see a major expansion in the rights of people making transformative/derivative works where someone can't just torpedo your shit just cuz you used 10 seconds of their song or whatever.
