I see Hollywood is now very into the idea of buying something once and then owning it forever and being able to make infinite copies. Which. Isn’t quite the message they imparted upon me in my childhood. I the spirit of their own long-held stance:

A photoshopped version of the “You wouldn’t download a car” ad saying: “You wouldn’t download an actor”

Obviously this isn’t digital piracy, it’s identity theft. Hence the reason Hollywood is perfectly fine with it. 😛

Identity theft is not a joke

Rivalarrival ,

Not with that attitude.

I don’t mean to sound anti-woman, but I have often fantasized about a world in which men have sex robots and can program them to have whatever personality and body type they want.

So maybe downloading actors from the bay will be a reality in our lifetime. I know they already have 3d porn games like this. I’ve even seen them hooked up to fleshlighta that are attached to a motor.

I mean maybe we’re already there if you’re rich enough.

Before we get there, it is wise to re-examine what we lose when everything is commodified. You might not mean to sound anti-woman, but you do sound anti-woman, anti-personhood even, because what you’re saying is that a person’s body (regardless of gender and sex) and likeness can be commodified without the person’s consent, or even knowledge that it is happening. You might be interested in reading Michael J. Sandel’s “What Money Can’t Buy” and examine your fantasy from an economic-political point of view.

Yep, I figured it was going to be offensive in some way, but I bet that day is coming, offensive or not.

Suuper late reply. Morals change, ethics evolve. I probably won’t be alive the day this happens, so I’ll leave with a shrug.

Copyright violation for thee, but not for me.

The United States has the most comprehensive social safetynet and system of redress on Earth.

…exclusively for the tiny sliver of the population that already owns everything and controls our government through institutionally legalized bribery.

As has happened for all of human history, we have devolved back to the golden rule: those with all the gold make the rules, and surprise surprise, the rules say they can’t lose and you can’t win.

Once again, Matt Groening predicted the future in the Napster episode of Futurama.

Considering how expanding images on KBin is pretty inelegant at this point, I also appreciate you transcribing the meme so I don't have to open it.

Black616Angel OP ,

You appreciate the transcription because you’re blind.

I appreciate it, because kbin expands images inelegantly.

We are not the same!

I don’t see what you did there
