Riskable

I have no doubt that these corporations (well, some of them) consider it a “threat”. “Massive”, though? No.

If it was a “massive threat” they would’ve lobbied long and hard long ago, joining with the MPAA and RIAA (which Sony was part of even back then!) in the 90s and 2000s era of “you wouldn’t download a car!”

Yes, even back then people were hosting their own game servers and not much has changed, really other than there’s a lot more online games now (even ones that shouldn’t be “online”).

This feels like corporate lobbyists trying to justify their jobs. Hopefully they’ll get “outsourced to AI” soon and articles like this will become a thing of the past. Replaced with AI-written legislation making the news because now rocks are required on all pizzas.

When individuals do it, it’s PIRACY!!!

When corporations do it, it’s merely copyright violations.

All the continents should be renamed, “Landia” and the oceans should just be rolled into, “Oceania”.

Why makes things complicated?
