It's like watching the MPAA try to oppose Napster at all costs instead of realizing that's where things are inevitably headed and building something better that they have a piece of.
Except now instead of a multi billion dollar trade organization ceding the future to others it's a bunch of individuals who generally don't understand the technology beyond their fear of it (in many cases as a result of their own efforts in writing fearful things about it for decades before it arrived) shooting themselves in the foot while organizing their outrage on social media, and ironically in so doing ensuring that they will not have their own place in the future.
From board room mistakes to bored zoomer mistakes.
