wrong
also wdym? literally the price point of video games is arbitrary as a luxury good especially with the advent of digital games so publishers hiking up the price of games to 80 bucks because "game development hard" when its just they really want to dip into your wallet more without passing on the need to not manufacture an actual supply chain physically anymore beyond developing the game and throwing it up online with a bit of advertisement.

then why are you so fucking upset?
>>
Obviously some people have an attitude that they made thing, they have absolute eternal control over the thing even after they sold it, and they want the systems surrounding the thing to prop up their control over it.

The licensing is just a choice, you can have licenses that allow distributing code publicly later, but since that relinguishes control the people want to lock it down eternally. They own it, if they want to shut the game down after selling (read: renting it out to be played on your pc for a while) it its their divine right.

For EU it shouldnt be a terribly difficult process to make a system that allows public distribution of a game some years later so that everyone is financially incentivized to still sell stuff in the block and only people who are mentally opposed to relinguishing control will object to it. They'd still make their money but you know.

You will do what the law says and no argument can save you.

You don't have the option of selling something that you take away from the customer on purpose.

You cannot do that. It is not available to you as an action.
You will be fined.
You will be jailed if you ignore the fine.

You are being stopped from commiting crimes.

IP isn't based on scarcity, its based on rewarding good ideas with exclusivity.

But IP is supposed to be limited, for copyright of a creative work its supposed to be the author's life time, for patents and other things, its only supposed to be 10 years.

IP law is fucked, we can agree on that, but we can also agree that stealing people's ideas and not crediting them is going to lead to bad bullshit too, the original creators should have rights to their works.

Selling a product as a service is illegal on half the planet. Taking away the ability for software to function is also illegal in that same half.

So? Much better for them to be able to pay for a game once it's actually been made and they can see it for themselves

People work on things, they generally like to get paid for their work.

Yes this includes things you can copy paste, like books, movies, video games, music, ect.

If people didn't get paid for their IP, there would be a lot less of it, and what little we do get is going to be utter shit.

Being against copyright doesn't equal not wanting people to make a living off their work. One has to wonder how poets or artists made a living before copyright existed.

IP should last 20 years with no transference, no extensions and should only be applicable to the individual(s) who applied for the patent (only individuals should be allowed to apply for patents). Ie, if somebody owns a patent, a firm cannot have it transferred to them nor can a firm file for a patent as an entity. Walt Disney should have owned the patent to his works, not 'The Walt Disney Company'. They should have expired upon the 20 year mark or his death, whichever occurred first.
I think it's fair to let individuals make their money from a patent but within 20 years either you've made sufficient money or you haven't. It will also encourage you to keep up with the quality of your work. If somebody can show up 20 years later and make your product better than you are then they are more deserving of people's money.

>loss of revenue
If said revenue is obtained in an illicit manner, loss of that revenue might actually be a good thing.
Regardless, yes, if we ripped out the present system, it would lead to a loss of revenue; primarily, it would lead to massive revenue loss for media companies milking an IP they didn't have a part in creating, and loss of wages for the people they employ (the creators, 9 times out of 10, sell their rights to the company as part of their contract). Also loss of royalties for people in some situations, depending on their contract>>719799948
. However, there are already ecosystems in place where copyright effectively doesn't exist, for example, independent artists, youtubers, podcasts, substacks, etc. who are too poor to sue people or file DMCA claims, whose revenue is, largely, not tied to people seeing what they make. Rather it's voluntary donations from patrons who enjoy their work and want to see more. A game with no DRM from GoG or itch.io is still capable of making money if people think it's worth putting money into, even if they can just get a free copy from somewhere else. There is commercial software, profitable commercial software that is open source. Maybe it's not as profitable for companies who cant price gouge customers and enforce an artificial monopoly on ideas, but I thought companies solely chasing profit was bad?
>>
>>719790686
This is tricky, but would it be possible/feasible to remove the libraries from the code, and merely have them as dependencies you'd have to get elsewhere? Not sure if the contracts would permit it, but then, that's the price you pay for using proprietary software with restrictive licenses. It's also tricky because very little of this is probably negotiated by the programmers or the people actually implementing this shit.
