      yes but what you said in reaction to “when sites try to archive information and incredibly rich copyright holders with infinite money and lawyers sue them to the detriment of human wellbeing in order to earn a pittance more to add to their infinite dragon hoard and that’s bad” is “you’re a whiny bitch.”

      perhaps it would’ve been worth considering adding your thoughts on the nuances of how laws bind vs protect people in the original comment?
