Es geht um den weltgrößten Spielzeughersteller oder mein Versuch, bei #Microsoft und #Copilot nicht ins Polemische abzurutschen. Ich bin offensichtlich gescheitert :-) Aber es gibt ein Blick in mein Bücherregal. Viel Spaß beim Lesen!

I just came across a tool to download+decrypt #windevine content.
Interesting in theory but looks abandoned.
What I find very interesting though is that it comes with a #EULA that summarises to "don't pirate" – presumably to keep the lawyers at bay. The code is licensed under #GPLv3 however.
Little known GPLv3 fact: If the software you received has "further restrictions" placed upon it, it grants you the explicit permission to remove them!
I would like to coin this tactic "#DMCA-condom" ;D

When a company ends support for the last version of a given #software product compatible with any subset of the supported #hardware, or ends support for a given software product altogether, or ends support for a software-controlled hardware product, the warranty #disclaimer, limitation of #liability, indemnity, and related #EULA terms should be deemed without force or effect regarding any future harms resulting from software defects unless the company releases all information and legal permissions necessary for arbitrary independent parties to patch those defects and distribute and install those patches.
Either release the complete and corresponding source code (including any keys necessary to install or run a compiled version) with a license to make and distribute fixes, or fix your up stuff forever, or face unlimited liability for the consequences of your refusal to fix or allow fixing.

The #MicroSoft #Copilot Terms of Service are no indication of a lack of confidence.
It’s a sign that the inventors of the #EULA have finally reached the peak of their skills. “The products we profit off of have no guarantee of working.”

New story drop! “Terms and Conditions” is live!!

The 2000s were also the heyday of noteworthy freeware games and sites such as GameHippo, and buying a copy of a digital work then—often on a CD—actually meant owning it and doing whatever (copyright) law permitted. No streaming disservices or prerequisites. Even pre-Microsoft Minecraft, in retrospect, was a relief from signing expansive EULA agreements and possibly trading off privacy for the product. Those days are worth returning to.

There is a silver lining to the whole #python #chardet debacle. If it is legal to throw a pile of code at an LLM, and tell it to write a new version of that code that is not a derivative then that gives us a lot of options too.
GPL compatible #ZFS? no problem! #ReactOS from the leaked NT/2k sources? No problem!
Maybe this is a golden age for the collapse of proprietary software after all. If they can do an end run around the #GPL we can do an end run around the #EULA.

@Vivaldi @librewolf @zenbrowser
And I know someone will ask, so here is Section 7 of Vivaldi's EULA:
"7. Without limiting the foregoing, you are neither allowed to (a) adapt, alter, translate, embed into any other product or otherwise create derivative works of, or otherwise modify the Software ; (b) separate the component programs of the Software for use on different computers; (c) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Software, except as permitted by applicable law; or (d) remove, alter or obscure any proprietary notices on the Software or the applicable documentation therein."

Malware as we know it is obviously detrimental to the user and their computer, but how "malware" is defined is so narrow that it overlooks how willing developers of "legitimate" proprietary software—including video games—are willing to mistreat their customers. Antivirus software has become practically a joke. At least I know #Luanti respects my privacy, unlike Microsoft #Minecraft.

#Cyberpunk2077 #VR Mod taken down by CD Project Red DMCA!Or rather by huge #ego of the author
The guy made a #framework to convert normal game into VR. This framework is universal, but needs specific patches and configs for each supported game, that modify and interact with game files.
It's being held behind monthly #Patreon subscribtion.
CDPR #EULA doesn't allow mods to be paid, so they suggested he makes the CP77 configs free with optional #donations.
He refused, so they filed #DMCA

2b2t should be held accountable by the people not a faceless corporation. Microsoft isn't punishing 2b2t to fight fascism, they likely wont even do anything about this. But even if they do it will be a worrying development that microsoft has legal control over a server you run on your own hardware with your own money
This is why I play Mineclonia on Luanti because its a FLOSS project the project has no technical ability to prevent you from running a server, I have a server with a friend, most minecraft features are implemented and its very fun for us.
Reminder that microsoft bans servers/mods that put guns or adult content into the game according to their EULA, and is currently being sued for unenforceable terms of the EULA

Just found out the terms of use of my new Samsung TV are not enforceable in my jurisdiction. So no, Samsung, for the privilege of watching this TV I do not cede to you paternity rights over my firstborn child.

To #Nintendo je fakt těžká (ne)kultura.
Dovolil jsem si v rámci experimentu zažádat o refund #scam hry #GloryToTheHeroes, protože mi to přišlo jako výbornej test customer service Nintenda.
14 dní si s nima dopisuju po e-mailu, aby mi 4 dny zpátky řekli, že prověří, jestli je to scam. Dneska bez dalších detailů "na vaši žádost sereme, v #EULA je uvedeno, že co se dá, to se nevydá!".
Za tenhle přístup bych jim joycony narval do nosu a #Switch vrátil...

By agreeing to these terms, you acknowledge the supremacy of Friend Computer in all things physical, spiritual, terrestrial, celestial, dimensional, real, theoretical, or hypothetical across all time and space.
Failure to agree to these terms will result in termination.

Ogni volta che , credi di comprare un gioco su #steam o piattaforme similari , in realtà stai “affittando” un videogame. Leggi le clausole #eula Quindi hai una licenza d’uso non un possesso. Immagina di leggere , affitta al posto di acquista …. Poi se vuoi procedi. Ma sappi che quella licenza la possono revocare quando vogliono oppure cambiare retro attivamente le clausole e tu non puoi fare nulla. #stopdestroyingvideogames #supportofisico

[ai-control] prevent robots.txt entries from becoming law | Brewster Kahle of the Internet Archive, weighs in re: legally enforceable statements in robots.txt
Having anything in robots.txt reflected in law is such a bad idea, that I suggest we, the Internet standards community, do our best to make it not happen. (I do understand the temptation to think we should make law, but others might disagree 🙂 ) So let’s not add any AI features into this standard.

Clause Day: “Everyone losing their minds over an entirely standard clause in a tech provider’s T&Cs / EULA day”; also known as Fine Print Friday. Via @katebevan
This is a much needed neologism within the online security community. If you have bluesky access it links through to a fairly funny thread.
