So gameplay that is recorded and shown on YT or Twitch is copyrighted by the individual that is recording to a medium, e.g. HDD, SSD, or VCR (or whatever).
I would personally like to see EA's nose tweaked by them insisting that some YT/Twitch user is violating their copyright with a slap down because the USER now has the copyright of the game play. Which EA has no right to.

This is an optimization (cough,cough) that allowed a system to run faster. The fix is relatively simple; Separate kernel address from user address. That comes at a cost, but many user space applications will notice little to nothing at all.

They are one of the worst publishers in the business. They routinely pitched (and sold) divisive releases of games to different retailers. Borderlands was my intersection with their practices. One retailer had an arena, other had specific weapons and none of it was available to others. Until a GOTY was released any player would automatically limited to a subset of the game.
They are the ones promoting open terrorism (in customer billing, anyway). It would be entertaining for them to be sued re being the responsible providers we all know they aren't. So sic the bad law firm on them.
I would really rather have a top notch law firm take them on. Hey, it's Xmas. I could use a gift from the Universe.
Thankfully they never could agree on a solution as they wanted a math heavy test while including everyone that might even be considered a SWE. Of course, SWE are not schooled that extensively in math although that is somewhat dependent on their school. At that time (mid 70's) many CS degrees were tied to Math Dept. while others had it tied to Electrical Engineer/Electronics.
They were upstanding people that I regarded highly. One told me he was leaving his position and didn't offer his new job. I looked at him a bit and said, "FBI" causing him to look wide eye at me.

This is that. There is a small (ARM?) unit that manages several items, including some power issues (IIRC). It also is used to verify that the cores are talking to each other (or it). Read their web page for more Intel provided data.
Consider a modern multi-core CPU is like a small minicomputer cluster of old. That is as close as I can surmise, without more details being available. I know it is used (supposedly limited to *cough*) to enterprise level support which is to enhance control by IT staff for updates, rollouts and gods knows what else.
However, please note that this is Intel supplied data and they have a bias for their viewpoint. To the extent of not wanting others to see much. Thus Google's push to get rid of it or at least mitigate its absolute control over the CPU.
Considering that Intel jumped whole hog into the DOS IN BIOS (UEFI) one suspects it incorporates features to support that bullshit boot system.
Of course, it is probably filled to overflowing with mission and feature creep just to make me feel good about HW bozos writing SW. Although they aren't even HW folk. They're chip designers. At Intel that gives them God Mode Always On status. Like in a video game.
Franken does want massive regulation on Google, Facebook and any other corp that gets his ire up.
First he wants Congressional Hearings to give his bias a veneer of legitimacy so others in the Congress will see his very clear viewpoint that they are *just too big*.
Then he wants to legislate their actual interface with their users, how they do their business (search, social contact) so it makes Franken happy. And, while they are legislating away, let's break 'em up because big is bad.
He hates Google. Now he hates Facebook as well, it appears to me anyway.
Thus they should bare the burden of Congressional Hearings and new laws that will be written to punish them specifically. Because Franken Hates Google.

Yes, however, we don't have internal memos or directives.
In the computer chip business functionality can be disabled because it didn't completely meet specs, e.g. if a FPU drew too much power but otherwise functioned perfectly it was disabled. Because it didn't meet specs.
For Tesla the battery might well support 80+% of the pack's rated goal. Thus sell it for a lower price. Updating the allowable usage might mean nothing more than bumping it up X%. As stated, better to get the vehicle and user out of harm's way.
Time will tell on this one, armchair generals are missing crucial data. Doesn't mean they won't waste a ton of bandwidth second guessing everyone, it's what they do.
Re: Dumb question - how did he get the copyrights?
He copyrighted his EMAIL code. Which is completely legit thing to do. However, he conflates getting the copyright with proof that his code is the first.
We can each write an email program today and they are all copyrighted. Thus his claim is BS and clearly from someone of a lower caste (snort).
He doesn't understand how copyright works, much like he doesn't understand that the RFC were the basis of the internet and email protocols came from them. In fact, if you wanted to be funny, you could write anything down labeling them all as EMAIL and be perfectly valid even if they are pictures of dicks. Or Shiva.
