🚨If a drone is hovering outside your window filming you you're just supposed to do NOTHING?
How the heck are you supposed to know if it's cops or some creep invading your privacy?
Florida man just got arrested for shooting a BB gun at a police drone... but this raises a HUGE question about 4th Amendment rights in the sky.
If you did something like this during war time it would be called a War Crime. Do it on domestic soil with an unaccountable gestapo and Kim gets to jangle the keys for a subhuman constituency
1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ASKED THE EU TO STOP COMPANIES FROM DELETING GAMES THEY PAID FOR.
THE ANSWER WAS NO.
The "Stop Killing Games" initiative wanted one thing: when publishers pull the plug, don't let them remotely destroy copies people already bought.
The European Commission's official response:
- It will not require publishers to keep games playable - says forcing them would go too far
- Reason given: publishers' copyright and IP rights come first. Your purchase comes second.
- The solution: a voluntary code of conduct, developed together with the same industry that kills games
- Plus an awareness campaign reminding you of the consumer rights you supposedly already have
1.3 million signatures. Years of work. Multiple hearings.
And the part that says everything: according to the campaign, Ubisoft got a seat at a closed-door meeting with the Commission before the decision. The 1.3 million people who signed did not.
Publishers can still brick your purchase whenever they feel like it.
If buying still isn't owning, then at least now it's official.
