@markscanenforcement is …a real thing? It’s run by real humans, not media pimps? These decades we’ve had to apply the print and broadcast world to the new World Wide Web, have they been enough? #ip #ai #copyrights #humanrights

Online piracy and counterfeit products related to Japanese anime, games and other content caused an estimated damage of ¥10.4 trillion in 2025, an industry ministry survey showed. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/27/japan/crime-legal/digital-content-piracy-damages/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #crimelegal #anime #videogames #piracy #copyrights
"Ask this Book" is wrong in many ways. #Writers and #readers need to stand together to push Amazon to make this an OPT-IN feature for authors (readers can already "opt out" by ignoring it).
This feature, turned on without permission and lacking an off switch, tramples on #copyrights and extends the influence of #AI over human thought.

IMHO #Copyrights and #IP laws should.mandate #FRAND legislation and be null and void if it's not possible to legally obtain permanent access/license to said content/product.
#Geoblocking and #RegionLocking should be outlawed as racist, discriminatory and anti-#ConsumerRights!
If a corpoation doesn't provide any means to legally obtain their IP, they should be prohibited from claiming "damages" due to #piracy in general!

PBS: Betty Boop, Blondie and Nancy Drew enter the public domain in 2026. “Betty Boop and ‘Blondie’ are joining Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh in the public domain. The first appearances of the classic cartoon and comic characters are among the pieces of intellectual property whose 95-year U.S. copyright maximum has been reached, putting them in the public domain on Jan. 1. That means creators […]
https://rbfirehose.com/2026/01/02/pbs-betty-boop-blondie-and-nancy-drew-enter-the-public-domain-in-2026/@pkal @ghul there's a reason why #Linux is #GPLv2-only and not #GPLv3.
- Mostly because GPLv3's terms are a non-starter for many things, as it's demands are just not compatible eith #patents and #copyrights that companies have to abide.
But yeah, the #SFC nowadays is quite of a net negative and it makes them and #copyleft look bad.
- Don't even get @landley started on how "GPL enforcement" made #BusyBox look like litigatious dicks and contributed 0 lines of code back to the project.
Whilst we all would prefer #ReproduceableBuilds and fully-#OpenSource'd and #OpenHardware, beating it out of corporations in court won't be a winning strategy, and lobbying for legislation and espechally choosing repairable and open hardware will be more effective long-term…
Can you steal something that doesn't exist in the physical world? How can you prove it was yours and that it was stolen? Virtual theft might not be accepted everywhere as a concept, but it already is a very profitable ground for cybercriminals.

The death of Arduino
https://www.linkedin.com/posts/adafruit_opensource-privacy-techpolicy-activity-7396903362237054976-r14H/
Several sections effectively reshape Arduino from an open community platform into a tightly controlled corporate service with deep data extraction built in. The most striking addition:
users are now explicitly forbidden from reverse-engineering or even attempting to understand how the platform works unless Arduino gives permission. #arduino #qualcomm #opensource #copyrights #offrehacked

Rebble believes that they ‘100%’ own the data of the Pebble Appstore. They’re attempting to create a walled garden around 13,000 apps and faces that individual Pebble developers created and uploaded to the Pebble Appstore between 2012 and 2016. Rebble later scraped this data in 2017.
