Hand in hand with bots, possibly. I really want lemmy to succeed though, only thing driving me forward. Ah well, people haven't used their brains in the past, no reason to expect they will in the future...

Have you heard of Indian call centers? Let's ban phones, let's ban email, let's ban gift cards, let's ban bank accounts.

The fact that the technology is also being used to scam people doesn't mean that the whole thing is bad. There are numerous use cases beyond illegal activity, and you focusing on a tiny fraction of the whole thing just shows that you don't actually want to understand, but that hate is your only way of expressing, that you don't understand it.

Here, read up. They've got studies and sources for their claims.

I'm trying to break through the echo chamber whenever I come across it, but it's a thankless endeavor, and I'm pretty close to giving up.

Disney, or anyone for that matter, can copyright claim any video. Youtube just plays ball because that's the simplest thing to do.

It's on them to prove, in court, that it actually is copyrightable and that they own the copyright to the content, which they'd fail to do.

The win is for the uploader and for the public, since now you can "be sure" that Disney won't take you to court over it, which would be a costly endeavor for you. Even if Disney would almost surely lose.

It does change the fact that people don't have to be afraid to use any of it.

Even though Disney would lose in court, you really don't want to ever be in the same room as Disney's lawyers.

And they're pretty much required to take things down, it prevents them from being liable. After that, the uploader can challenge this decision, and if the claimer doesn't back down, it goes to court.

Unfortunately, claimers are currently not required to provide any proof, nor are they required to pay for any legal costs (at least not upfront), so it's just simpler for the uploader to take the L.

There's no lowest bidder here, how'd you even come up with that?

People employed in crypto are usually very well paid, because they have to be good at their jobs.

The absolute majority of cryptocurrencies is fully open source.

Seriously man, educate yourself before spitting nonsense.

Edit: I'd appreciate if anyone downvoting me provided their reasons for doing so, preferably with sources to back them up. I'm happy to provide examples to back my arguments up if requested.

You'd get an F then mate.

The fact that they have a token is in no way relevant to the fact that we're talking about an exchange here.

Yes god thank you.

I thought I was going crazy, every single thread that's even remotely (very remotely) connected to politics is full of this.

I'm seriously worried for the platform, because this shit is going to turn people off hard.

Even saw someone suggesting an assassination of a supreme court justice AND PEOPLE WERE FUCKING DEFENDING IT. The mods removed the comment luckily, but I still managed to get like 30 downvotes on a "don't suggest assassinations, be better than them" comment, just check my history.

We're becoming fucking Truth Social or Parler or whatever of the left.

Anything views quality control as an expense.

Are you even listening to yourself?

It's an exchange, not a cryptocurrency.

Check your facts before you start the hate train.

Also, most cryptos have state of the art programming. They have to, because any little hole or vulnerability puts millions or billions of dollars at risk.

Oh for sure, it's just a loot more expensive

They're taking about a NAS though?

that's the joke

We buy shows that last a few months

You might be, I've had my shoes for years now.

If you're buying shitty shoes, that's on you and you're a part of the very problem you're complaining about.

If you're talking about we as in the people, do you think that somehow magically cutting marketing would get rid of shitty products? That's not how it works, maybe garbage like Supreme wouldn't exist but that's just a tiny piece of the pie

I suggest you read my comment again.

I'm not saying that the world won't change, just that there's no point trying to push for something like straight up socialism.

Push for socialized healthcare, then push for more social housing etc.

By applying the pressure in one spot, you might actually be able to achieve anything instead of just screaming at a computer monitor all your life

It's ok because if they're killing them in the first place, nitrogen is quite a "peaceful" way to do it

The world is capitalist and it's not changing anytime soon.

Meaning, whatever your ideology is, it's a waste of your and everyone elses time.

Adapt it to reality and push for smaller changes, a big one ain't happening.

Ah of course, the "everything I hear about is bad" bias.

There's an insane amount of small businesses out there, have a look at your friendly government's statostics.

You know how these small businesses start? Often by telling friends and family about them (marketing), posting ads on the local notice board (marketing), having a damn logo on the door (marketing).

People have to know you exist, else they can only come across your shop by mistake, and no way you're surviving a week like that.

All of these places would fail without any sort of marketing. Concentrating the power into the hands of established players.

Whatever you stand for, it doesn't work.

So you're hating on the 3000 assholes who've already cornered the market and now you want a world where new companies possibly founded by someone no-as-assholish are doomed to stay unknown and fail?

People will keep choosing what they know, if you don't allow new players to enter the market, these old massive conglomerates will keep on growing, keep on consuming the competition.

It's a hyperbole, but only a small one.
