You're right. As we all know people only started to create art after IP laws where established.
Nobody ever made something original just for the joy of it. It's only fair that a single company has the exclusive rights on a pants-wearing mouse that looks a certain way for 95 years.
Nobody does anything anymore and we'll all just die. Gotcha.
I'm fully in favour of abolishing IP law for everyone, ideally globally.
Public domain everything.
Buy European here in Europe.
In that regard we're in the same boat as the USA. Buying domestic often just isn't possible.
Where you bullied of Bluesky for saying something they didn't like?

Edit: I was wrong about JP pricing and removed that part.

It feels a bit like the author used AI as a buzzword to get people to click on an article about electronics recycling.
e-waste is a big issue affecting everyone and AI has lots of known issues. Mashing both of those things together doesn't fix anything.
Sorry if I wasn't clear about that. Abolishing IP laws won't fix capitalism.
There are other solutions for that. Most of them as unrealistic as abolishing IP laws. But we could try universal basic income as a stopgap.
