‘It will end commercial piracy by criminal organisations and will not apply to internet users’

This is fucking insane. Of all the things in the new stimulus, this one is just nuts.

They basically are bailing out Hollywood I guess for suffering from the pandemic and bad economy. Now copyright laws are about to get even more insane.

This is the kind of shit we get with "tough on crime" Dems.

    The latest win for Hollywood studios comes after California governor Gavin Newsom declared that those in the entertainment industry were essential workers and therefore exempt from the state's strict stay-at-home orders.

    :doomjak:

    Fuck Hollywood. Something like 90% of what they make isn't even worth the risk.
