    I think it’s insane the rules for anything computer-related or computer-adjacent

    “Oh if you make anything using our software, legally it’s ours.”

    Could you imagine if the same logic applied if you removed the “Magic Technology is Magic” aspect?

    “Oh you built this house with one of our hammers, so it’s ours actually.”

      I can lend this DVD to my aunt but if I do the same with the the movie file then I’m a criminal

      I’m becoming more and more convinced that their ultimate goal is for everything to be rented, nothing owned.

      They are the feudal lords and we the peasants merely get the privilege of leasing shit from them. This phone? Not mine, it can be locked remotely at the whim of my lord Google. What I see on this phone? Also determined by my lord’s mercy.

        When he saw a child drinking from their hand, he threw away his designer brand single use bottle.

        Own nothing and be happy. Reject their bullshit products.
