I’m trying to get to a reason on this, but my point reach to a limit.
I’ve the feels that scraping the internet for public accessible data, like for example open and public music on Spotify wouldn’t be a crime, but the distribution would be. At the same token, this is seem as a crime, while Google does the same and nothing happens, even worse, if this get regulated, Google would have a huge advantage on anyone else.
So, my deeper question is: “Is copyright dead?”
Gotcha… I think I understand your point. Yet, the lack of enforcement for this law for the small guy, and the dozens of cases of the big guy using this to screw the small guy proves somewhat contrary on it… But I think that we disagree on the philosophical implication on the topic, not on the topic itself.
And before I forget, thanks a lot for clarifying the your point of view, even that we don’t fully agree in totality on the topic, I appreciate your effort and reasoning with me.
Glad we understood our points of view. I honestly didn’t know how to express myself better. And thank you as well staying calm without the typical forum toxicity. :-) I guess there is not much else to discuss about this particular point anymore, as we cleared any prior misunderstandings up.
Ultimately, the law is there, the execution is not.
Yeah… maybe the revision shouldn’t be on the law itself, but on the fact that the economic power can easily translate into law/gov power and this could be a major issue… But this is a total side-step on the topic… And another thing to my already dizzy mind to think about it :D
