    The EU has already taken care of it.

    The Court of Justice of the European Union found that a
    copyright owner exhausts the right of distribution to a copy of a computer
    program once he sells, or authorizes the sale of, the copy. This means that whoever purchased the
    computer program can resell it and the copyright holder cannot control the
    resale of the copy. The Court found that
    this exhaustion principle applies whether the copy is on a tangible medium like
    a CD-ROM or DVD or an intangible download from the Internet, and it also
    applies to corrected and updated programs that the copyright owner sells. Furthermore, the Court made clear that contract
    clauses that deny the customer the right to transfer his copy of the computer
    program are void.




  • it wasn’t. It was just a place where people shared pictures. The algorithm actually worked, recommended you accounts that you followed and liked and that was it.

    Reels came out and that went sideways. The algorithm started pushing nothing but shitty meme accounts and the ads are nothing but ‘coaches’ talking about ‘scaling’ (yeah dude, some account with 30 followers totally convinces me that you can do that)
