in your own words you've made $45 over the eight years that Meshpage was released, so clearly you are getting paid.
So that's the level of salary you'd prefer to work for? Are you how efficient in writing software? I might have extra 45 dollars I could use for software development. And the contract with the evil is 8 years in length.
And when no one but a couple of corporations can pay for the privilege of being able to create new artistic works without having to worry about being executed for doing so
You're happy to pass some money to the shop when you take their bread from the shelf, but why is paying for the software so difficult concept to you? Is there some fundamental difference between taking a piece of software and taking a bread from the shop. If you fail to pay your purchase, it's called stealing.
You know why this gap is so important. When you create a product, it has some keywords that your product owns. For example product name is important identifier which allows finding your product. These keywords are important part of the problem. Basically, government has some tasks to do, and the only way to get market implement government's requirements is to encode the requirements to those keywords. So when government employee finds a keyword when examining some area of the world, they'll map the keywords to the requrements that they want the same author to implement. And then they buy some adverticements and expects people to watch television.
Now when pirates distribute the product to areas which that author cannot control, those government's keyword mapping systems go haywire. Some authors whose works are being distributed without permission gets more requirements from the government than what he can really handle, simply because pirates expanded his area of the world without passing compensation to the author.
Large companies that are creating millions of products to customers are in significant amount of trouble because of this government's keyword mapping system. Basically even after distributing government's requirements to all employees, the signal is significantly more powerful than what humans can withstand. Large chunk of the govt's requirements need to be discarded if the robot that normally builds those devices are not currently available for that task. Humans need to do those jobs, and the signals coming from the system are getting more and more powerful.
Now returning to the gap problem. When government is pushing people to implement more requirements, but all areas of the world that are contributing to the requirements that you must implement are not contributing to the money, the government's keyword analysis system will think that you have more money available than what is the real situation. This gap between keyword analysis system money amount and your bank account money amount is dangerous, because if it continues long time, you'll eventually run out of money and government cannot do anything to help you fill your bank account when government's own system is saying you should have signifiicant money reserves available from license fees from the pirate area. When pirates failed to pass the money to the author, the author eventually runs out of money and starves to death.
Basically government needs to know who gets license fees from copyrighted works and only way to calculate that is by counting how many times his product keywords are mentioned around the world. When pirates are using the product, it contributes to the keyword system, but fails to pass money to the author. The keywords and the money need to be in balance, i.e. one-to-one mapping between keyword mentions around the world and license fees obtained from customers.
The only way it might exist is if you tried suing those larger developers yourself.
This doesn't work, because they simply fail to use the material that I have created. The entity that sues them needs to be someone whose work was used by the larger entity in their organisation. There's about zero chance of getting google to use anything I create as a hobby. So someone else needs to sue them.
But the system as a whole works nicely when authors whose work is being ripped off will stand up and call their bluff. While the progress is slow, copyright is designed for progress of science and useful arts.
They weren't an underdog then, and were just as hated for their egregious copyright abuse.
RIAA's program for suing ordinary people for copyrights didn't really gain much bonus points for RIAA. But that's the action that needs to be taken when your customer base freerides your work from non-authorized sources. The piracy activity needs to stop, and the area that uses the songs etc need to pay their license fees. The whole investment can only be profitable if all the areas where the product is available are contributing to the coffers of the company. Together all the areas are absorbing the large development cost. If some areas are missing/not contributing to the bottom line, there will be gap between predicted money amount and the realized money amount. And this gap needs to come from somewhere. The company needs to sell more t-shirts without getting compensation to fill the gap.
He thinks that copyright law will somehow force his competitors out of the market and users to use Meshpage for whatever reason, allowing him to cash in on the money and respect he thinks he's entitled to
Those "competitors" will disappear who decided to cash in on other people's work. Only by doing everything yourself, you can create products free of copyright problems, and when projects become larger and more work is piling up, the developers either do copyright infringement, or shut down their project or run to bahamas with customer's money. But either way, projects that grow too large will end up in chopping bin. This tendency for larger projects to disappear is good opportunity for meshpage.
Again: Why do you want people to die for violating copyrights?
You need to worship the wall to understand why copyright is necessary for proper functioning of the markets. It's the power of the wall that determines the fate of copyright violators. They either become evil who cannot control the power the wall gives, or they quickly learn how to control copyright's power. Its the subtle control that allows wielding powerful items without causing damage to your surroundings, It's this damage that copyright violators cannot avoid, and your neighbours will hope you were dead rather than let you access the power of the wall.
By stricter copyright law, your usage of someone else's proprietary file format and model file contributed to copyright infringement
This is exactly why standard file formats are dangerous. There exists existing market of compatible files, with no-one knowing owners or licenses of the material. While meshpage has good copyright system, it still needs to take risks on some areas, i.e. some standard file formats are used for compability reasons.
This is the reason why we implemented those standard file formats last... i.e. they were not important enough requirements to get implemented first. Our fundamental data structures embedded deep inside meshpage are independent of the file format details. So when pirates start using our system for evil deeds, we can easily disable those areas of the system which cause most damage and still have a working 3d modelling system.
This is what it means to build a stable system which follows copyright to the letter. You need to build the system independently, in a clean room, without help from pirate community or other outside world, and then build a stable system that do not break if criminals get access to your system.
Why do you want people to die for violating copyright?
That's already unavoidable given the 2 billion damage awards associated with copyright infringement. After paying 2 billion to content owners, the pirate is very near the edge where humans die for hunger and lack of apartment in -30C temperatures.
For a while I've suspected that the guy who you can hear on the Meshpage tutorials might not even be Tero
And you're going to build a system that does analyzing people's voices on internet just to prove this? What happens if your system actually decides that the person on the tutorial is actually Tero and tp seems to be the same person.
The fact that I cannot play a CD on a cassette player is not proof that the cassette player has protections built in to prevent copyright infringement via CD.
do you understand that "circumventing technical protection measures" means that when CD and casettes are not compatible with each other, circumventing this limitation (via cable for example) is actually illegal operation. I.e. copying your music from old casettes to newer cd-rom's might be illegal operation because it circumvents technical protection measures.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone who knows less about those subjects than our friend here.
The information is coming from different teams from the internet, i.e. from trolls like yourself. If the global information is poor quality, I cannot do anything about it.
Leave the rest of us who yearn to experience and create new works of art to our own creative devices.
Nice that you ended this bullshit description to the correct place, i.e. creative devices. Since I already created over 100 million of those buggers, it's perfectly fine place to stop the description. I.e. now you're in my domain.
Entering our domain has serious consiquences, you will be subjected to some strict rules:
1) copyrights need to be respected
2) information flow is controlled
3) coding conventions need to different from anyone else in the world
4) standard file format usage is restricted
5) google search cannot be used
6) your output needs to be free of copyright problems
7) deadlines must be met without exception
8) even a single pixel cannot be broken on customer release
9) you must never click scam site adverticement banner
10) seatbelts must be used or the car shouldn't move
11) usage of taxis is recommended if there's danger of missing deadlines
make your blind worship of the RIAA any more reasonable.
The rule that allows RIAA worship is actually talking about "all entities in the world", and doesn't pick RIAA specifically. If someone is significant player iin the world, their position needs to be part of our copyright system. RIAA is good because its generally despised, and thus an underdog. Similar reasons we bash microsoft and raise linux to the podium even though linux boxes are known to be slower and less compatible than your ordinary windows box.
