Well, clearly you’re a terrorist

1, 2, 5!

Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!

No, I’m sorry, it’s just too much peril

What I can imagine is a fair and equitable ecology of media sharing. While some commercial producers - as well and indie ones - would offer their content for free linking (perhaps with a daily/weekly quota), others may work out mass licensing deals with the platform owner. , Even many more others may work out, individualized compensation agreements that fall somewhere in between.

So, FB would pay an annual licensing fee to all of the content producers whose content it profits from.

FB is already built on hundreds of more complex systems that the one required for tracking license payment obligations.

That certainly does sound like a problem for Facebook, and that’s why they told Canada to fuck off and stopped publishing Canadian news.

That doesn’t make it right, and it’s certainly pretty shitty on that part of Facebook, who could easily afford to pay for the content that they make so much money from.

If one company is able to profit from the content/product produced by another, the original company should be fairly compensated. That’s what the law was about, and Facebook decided they didn’t wanna play that game.

I always find it funny how close German can sometimes be to English.

Edit: oops, not German

So you admit, there is no reason not to believe what is written in the article, then you posit a strawman argument in the attempt to validate the point you already admitted was meaningless.

How is this anything other than an absurd amount of bias?

What evidence do you have for that? If you’re going to call the writer of this article a liar, you should back that up with proof.

OK… You’ve listed an apparent amount of expertise in the subject matter under discussion, but you stopped short of offering your opinion. Excuse me if I’m a little confused.

This is a big step. I hope other technology companies try to aim for something similar and actually meet their goals.

Well, that put a smile on my face

Or, if they do fuck it up, they fuck it up like gremlins 2. Because I loved that.

Yes

Line must go up
