Funimation To Shut Down Completely On April 2; Deleting Purchased Digital Copies Upsets Fans - Anime Explained
There needs to be a registry service that allows people to show they have a license for any digital media we purchase.
Sooooo.... Ultraviolet?
Almost like a decentralised system with non fungible tokens for licences, that you could even trade between individuals without involvement of the rights owner
Sounds great. Maybe we could even scam the users for even more money.
The reason that's never going to happen is because it would be the cause of massive profit losses for digital companies.
Capitalism makes the rules.
Another is because for a decentralized ownership service to hold any ground it must be either backed by a (centralized) court of law or hold the full service you're buying. Otherwise what's stopping a hosting platform to remove the service you bought with your nft from their platform?
Indeed. Needs to be run by an independent non-profit organisation.
Like the government?
Not ONE government, but I'd accept something that lots of governments sign up to and share responsibility for. E.g. funding and making sure it is not giving any one country preferential treatment.
Why would there be massive losses licencing media properly?
The current system would be overturned in its entirety by something like this, and that's why the people making money and holding the rights aren't going to let it happen.
Funnily enough this is the only legitmate use for this technology, but will never happen because capitalists will never let it.
Given the number of crypto bros sobbing that someone right clicked their monkey, I don't think the copyright holders are going to be down with that.
That's not remotely close to how it would work lol. Those are just links to media, not licences
Blockchain? Lmfao.
That's the only good thing that came out of that nonsense. Rich people getting scammed. Just wished it wasn't also your dear uncle Sam who now lost his life savings to a fucking nazi ape.
But also as 'just' a technology, it's extremely inefficient, it is prone to fraud and unreliable at best. There is no use case beyond scamming really.
Maybe tell blockchain to stop hogging our electricity and water supply and I'll look into how this completely unnecessary thing works. At this point I may as well watch an M night Shyamalan movie. Just as unnecessary and densely stupid.
Cope lmao
Cope lmao
