Call it what it is: blackmail.

"making sure that creators had a limited time where they could exclusively profit" sounds like "protection of profit" to me.

Too old, fat, physically disabled people, etc. can have a job and turn that job into petrol to feed their cars. OTOH they can't drive a bicycle. That's not very egalitarian.

This guy's shtick has always been "I am a shithead", it's funny to see people disappointed that they found out he's a shithead.

The fediverse to which the most popular instances, such as mastodon.social, belong.

All the instances in the main fediverse have practically the same moderation rules and if you don't apply them to your instance they ban you and stop federating with you.

Funny to see Mastodonites complain about free speech when the main fediverse has one of the most strict speech policies I've seen online.

No they don't

Spot on, but to me it's rather sad, and I wish I didn't have to read about it here, since I have no interest in celebrity gossip
