    AI is ignoring so many IP laws while the US government continues to push and collude with its cartels, all the while making sure the technology bubble is all AI and is all US centered. The EU certainly needs to do something, but I imagine many in the EU don’t want to put their own IP at risk.

      don’t want to put their own IP at risk.

      Understandably if you ask me. Instead of abolishing copyright laws we should just quiet quit on protecting US intellectual property and let everyone get away with infringing us copyright and give back the peoples access to to open seas 🏴‍☠️.

    You don’t need army and nukes to fuck up the USA. All you need is to hit its economy.

      And then there’s Trump, who’s managing to use the US army to fuck up everyone’s economy, including their own. Talk about thinking ouside the box…

    Years ago they gave Apple a patent for using your face to open your phone, neither of which are technologies with any link to Apple. That’s all you need to know.

    Please do, only a handful of wealthy people actually benefit from IP laws. The Americans defending it claim to be creative but are somehow unable to imagine anything better than intentional monopolies.

    “The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.” — Steve Biko

    Sincerely,
    an American who makes IP for a living

    THIS was an appropriate time to be using falsifying-quotes:

    the “nuclear” option.

    Unfortunately, Netanyahu’s nearly-certainly weighing the actual nuclear option on Iran, then ALL Muslim-countries, the minute ANYone retaliates ( mass-shooting, nuclear style ).

    Which means that keeping things clear, differentiating between “nuclear” & nuclear, would be wise.

    How about EU doesn’t attack anything but rather just repair a broken and outdated relationship?

      Been trying, seems to have no effect.

      I’m down to destroy patents, copyrights and all, I’m against those on principle anyway.

      If US companies are going to ignore European sovereignty while also demanding corporate welfare why should Europe be the one to repair the relationship?
