14 days agoI don’t do a whole lot right now, partially because I’m just not sure what I want to run or how much risk I want to take on in terms of security (for exposed services) and data recovery. I started with pihole to get better ad blocking on my tv, and recently started hosting a dinner vtt server for my d&d group. Some time in the future, I might spin up a nextcloud instance to replace my dropbox or immich for google photos
What I want is consistency, either apply the law equally and fairly or reform the whole system. Nobody, especially not big business, should be getting special carve-outs to be exempt from copyright infringement outside of ‘fair use’ considerations.
In my ideal world, IP law would be framed to protect novel ideas just long enough for inventors or creators to capitalize on their ideas and prevent outright 1:1 copying without any sort of innovative or transformational changes. It would also discourage squatting on things like patents- patent squatting and the like should lead to losing rights.
