I'm not convinced you understand reality beyond the level of posturing. Like if you repeat "HOW EMBARRASSING!" loud enough, that will become real.
Which is delightfully ironic when you just spat the word "toxicity" over a mistake you then repeated, four straight times.
What you're doing is trolling and you're not very good at it.
"Here is why you're wrong, in detail."
"Nuh-uh I already won acuz I said so. You are humiliated. Humiliated!"
Meanwhile.
In reality.
This is obviously something people do host. There's a website (with mirrors) at the center of this topic. The website we're on now, and the service it's built on, made some promises about discussing that law-breaking website, and readily hosts some law-breaking content directly.
We're trying to question several intermediate steps in that complex relationship.
You're trying to project an irrational emotional state on someone who's been steering you back toward that as gently as you deserve.
Even if the answer is that we all have to find a new host - or do it ourselves, which is an option - all this railing about the laaaw will have contributed precisely dick. We're familiar, thanks. Some of us are fundamentally opposed to it existing in any form. We reserve the right to ask 'what the hell' when someone invites us onto their rug so they can yank it out from under us. If you find any opinion on that besides trying to essentially degrade a pseudonymous stranger, let me know.
No, trying is what you're doing, with this weak trolling. I told someone railing about laws that they can't even spell their name.
This thread's subject is about three steps removed from the subject of copyright law, and no worthwhile discussion is going to emerge from someone smugging it up about that subject when they literally do not know the first thing about that subject.
"Uh well yeah I couldn't find the first thing about this topic with a map and a tour guide, but I'm still the expert in this super serious debate."
You barged in on me rolling my eyes at someone for making a simple mistake... and took three tries to even understand that's what was going on. Yes. Yes I do doubt your understanding of the general concept and its laws.
Fortunately I don't care about your opinion of either, because what this specific thread is ABOUT is whether forums should support civil disobedience.
This is a community for breaking certain laws.
It doesn't break laws, itself. It's as defensible as any marijuana-enthusiast subforum. So we're wondering why the line is drawn here, and if this is where the line stops. A lot of other morally necessary discussions on Lemmy will concern such laws.
Anyone going "but there's laws!" is confused.
None moreso than the people who don't even know their name.
... what's the word before ".gov"?
Thoroughly familiar with it; don't care. The global menu has always been goofy because of the invisible relation to some open window. Usually a small window floating out in middle of the desktop, because Mac OS took forever to adopt any concept of "maximize." I'm still not sure they do it right.
You’ve never heard of Copywrite law?
Google it.
Don't scoff. Copy-paste that term into any search engine. See what you get instead.
Did you see the bullshit I'm responding to?
God damn, do I want to live in the reality where bad press exists. Or have you not watched these exact assholes fail upwards for the last seven years?
Oh no, the condemnation of a narcissistic felon.
