TL;DR?
No spoilers here:
“The FEC is facing a second request — backed by Democrats in the House and Senate — to clarify that its law on fraudulent misrepresentation applies to use of AI.”
Guess who’s being a stick in the mud over this…

I’d settle for a good, consistent source for subtitles, let alone audio. The DMCA is a plague on fan cleared content. :(
And therein lies my main beef with mine; the adjustable carb doesn’t work for shit, compared to manual, digit delivered airflow of my others (yeah, have five, almost bought a 2023 last night).
Guess it’s time for disassembly and inspection, which is disappointing, since the others “just worked” outta the box.
Have to agree with others that this looks like an episode of FanboysGoneWild, but there are reasons to question, if not outright ceasing to use Brave and they center around their CEO, Brendan Eich. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/22/business/brave-brendan-eich-covid-19.html
Look no further than Hollywood studios for a primer in creative accounting, they’ve kept tens millions for themselves over decades.
AKA: Fuck facts, sue them into silence.
Apologies, thank you for making an exception.
Funny innit, how they’re all “let the markets decide”, until they decide against them. Then it’s “cancel culture”.
Better headline? Fascists Sue Cities For Right to Grift.
Ugh. I plead insufficient caffeine and a memory like a sieve, thanks for the correction.
Two words sum up “why”: Reality Winter.

The real problem, as I see it, is that P+ has gone out of their way not only to gather all that is Trek under their umbrella, but they’ve gone out of their way to ensure their walled garden is the only place it’s found.
Look to file sharing sites and USENET, where the DMCA has been wielded with gay abandon to decimate access to pirated content. It’s impossible to find full episodes on USENET any more and torrent sites likewise.
What brought ST back in the first place, was syndication. It was cheap enough, every podunk broadcast station could afford to air it, thus creating legions of new fans. This is the exact opposite of what’s happening today.
Sadly, if P+ loses enough to start cancelling production of new content, they’d still be sitting on all the copyrighted IP and something tells me they’d try to squeeze every farthing possible out it via licensing before letting another production company touch it.
At this point, I’m buying DVD box sets, ripping them to my raided NAS, reselling them and saying “Yuck fu!” to the controlling millionaires at Paramount.
