@Luanti Resist! ❤️ :luanti:
The #DigitalMillenniumCopyrightAct is yet again used by corporations to easily takedown legal competitors. Let's also use an AI to do automatic accusations to kill even more competitors! Bleah!
I hope Microsoft will share a big "whops sorry" as soon as possible.

Der Digital Millennium Copyright Act, kurz #DMCA, stammt aus dem Jahr 1998.
Ich mag allein diesen Namen.
1998.
Das Millennium hatte noch nicht einmal angefangen, aber in den USA war offenbar schon klar: Das hier wird jetzt das Digital Millennium. Und natürlich braucht dieses noch gar nicht begonnene digitale Jahrtausend erst einmal ein ordentliches #Copyright-Gesetz.
Rückblickend hat das etwas wunderbar Zukunftsoptimistisches. Fast so, als hätte man 1998 kurz die digitale Zukunft ausgerufen und vorsorglich schon mal geregelt, was man darin besser nicht kopieren darf.
Was der DMCA dann tatsächlich bewirkt hat und wofür er bis heute eingesetzt wird, ist deutlich weniger lustig. Seine Grundideen haben zudem weit über die USA hinaus Wirkung entfaltet, unter anderem über internationale Handels- und Rechtsbeziehungen.
Und da wird der Name für mich fast schon unfreiwillig komisch: Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Jetzt sind wir ein gutes Vierteljahrhundert in diesem „Digital Millennium“ angekommen. Plattformmonopole, algorithmische Öffentlichkeit, automatisierte Takedowns, globale Rechteverwertung und inzwischen generative KI.
Ob uns dieses Verständnis von digitalem #Urheberrecht als Menschen, als Gesellschaft oder überhaupt als „digitale Welt“ wirklich weitergebracht hat?
Sagen wir mal so: Das Millennium läuft noch eine Weile. Vielleicht finden wir es ja noch heraus.

How Youtuber Louis Rossmann's beef with an Australian PlayStation repair whiz revealed a shocking past
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07-20/youtuber-louis-rossmann-takes-on-better-way-electronics/105532410This story takes some twists and turns.
For me, it's a reminder for me of several important points:
- People who do downright awful things in one area of their life/work/morals are usually terrible people in other areas.
- Some people have enough awareness to say "Sorry" to their victims, yet not show remorse or contrition. They do not change their ways, they are manipulative, and they think they're the smartest person in the room. They're incapable of showing sincere respect or gratitude toward other people. They're toxic, they're abusive, they're bullies, and they're acting as though "The end justifies the means" to get what they want.
- We should all have the right to repair software, hardware, and systems we own. Whether you're running a repair business, or are a Maker (or "Hacker" by the old-school definition), or are a regular person engaging in a hobby at home, we should be supportive of each other in these aims. It's wrong to impede these goals by abusing legal tools such as Copyright, DRM, and DMCA.#RightToRepair #Maker #Hacker #LouisRossmann #JessaJones #DigitalRightsManagement #DigitalRestrictionsManagement #DRM #DigitalMillenniumCopyrightAct DMCA #Copyright #YouTube #LuanTahiraj #BetterWayElectronics

This means that when a vendor end-of-lifes a gadget, no one can make an alternative OS for it, so off the landfill it goes.
It doesn't help that UEFI - and other trusted computing modules - are covered by #Section1201 of the #DigitalMillenniumCopyrightAct (#DMCA), which makes it a felony to publish information that can bypass or weaken the system.
