So if I buy a physical game in the US, that is me buying a licence to play the game (as it has already been made clear legally that I do not own the game through means of DRM).

Whitelists are the death of the Internet if they are implemented. We already have a massive issue with corporate centralization of the Internet, and if free and open competition isn’t allowed to exist in the first place, then why even have an Internet?
It also helps the government keep ultimate control over their populace, which I’m sure is what they want at the end of the day like any regime throughout history.

Without a defense, the court reportedly concluded that both NordVPN and ProtonVPN actively advertise their ability to bypass geo-restrictions, citing match schedules in their marketing materials.

Altman is a symptom, not the problem. The problem is capitalism.
That logo already means copyleft, though.
Only if the working class takes back the nation by force (which doesn’t necessarilly have to include violence).
You already know the answers to both of those questions.
I can only hope these can actually hit commercialization, unlike most new battery technologies that never leave the lab.
The DNC is paid, controlled opposition. The only way they won’t roll over is if there’s a leftist Tea Party that forcibly takes over the DNC and outs all the corporatists.
The US has been like that since its founding. It has always been elites (slave owners back in the day) vs everyone else.
Yes, but first you must overcome the friction from the starches by adding butter.
Or c) abolish copyright law entirely.
