They didn't pay for all the books they lent. That's theft.

@qqmrichter @PJ_Evans @pleaseclap @hailey there's no need for argument here, y'all. be excellent to each other. @hobbsc @PJ_Evans @pleaseclap @hailey An argument would imply two people who know what they're talking about speaking. One person in this exchange cannot distinguish between "infringement" and "theft" and is unequipped to have an actual argument. @hobbsc @qqmrichter @PJ_Evans @pleaseclap @hailey It's really funny and sad at the same time how they're constantly trying to appear nonchalant and one-up each other with phrases such as "sweetcheeks" lol @shellheim @hp If I say no then that would be one-upping you, so I am trapped in this loop! You seem to have bested me stranger! AAAAAHHHHH @shellheim The trick is to only imply the one-upping by asking passive-aggressive questions! @PJ_Evans @pleaseclap @hobbsc @hailey Sweetcheeks, see if you can tell me the difference between "infringement" and "theft" and why they are entirely different terms in the legal sphere. (Hint: no you can't, apparently, since you're still babbling nonsense.) @qqmrichter@mastodon.world @pleaseclap @hobbsc @hailey @PJ_Evans @qqmrichter @hobbsc @hailey "the Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that permitting the Internet Archive’s digital library would “allow for widescale copying that deprives creators of compensation and diminishes the incentive to produce new works.”" The Court is accurately describing the legal situation. These word choices are specific, limited, and literal. "Theft" is not among them on purpose, because it's not applicable. You're welcome to try telling the Court they're wrong @PJ_Evans hey evans r these boots ur licking yummy? @qqmrichter @pleaseclap @hobbsc @hailey @PJ_Evans @qqmrichter @pleaseclap @hobbsc @hailey rentseeking parasites do not improve anyone’s lives, so I don’t understand why anyone would repeat their nonsensical talking points |
@PJ_Evans @pleaseclap @hobbsc @hailey No, you misunderstoon me. I said "stop falling for billionaire lies", not "continue perpetuating billionaire lies".
I know the difference is subtle, but see if you can tell them apart.
