I do not have a strong opinion on this topic, i think we should be able to copy data,
no copyright and stuff, but thinking from a business perspective, it somewhat falls apart.
In eastern Europe, at least, piracy is like a part of people here, a lot of then prefer to
pirate software instead of buying it, some pay for services like Netflix and Spotify but
lot of others that don't.
Copy protection is impossible to make, DRM software was time and time again proven to be flawed,
countless 'hacker' have bypassed it on hardware and software, it's mostly a matter of time.
And in the end, the x-factor, you can always snap a pic.
My opinion might change, i would love to hear the opinion of others, you can email, or dm me on XMPP,
find my contact info on the home page.
So, i will probably post about copyright at a later date.
