Then you need a more powerful PC. What do you mean a more powerful monitor? I don’t even understand what that means.

What do you mean “powerful monitor”. It just needs to display a picture.

Comments like this sound like the “they write it off on tax” comments, where there’s this assumption about how complex things must work, but it can’t work exactly that way otherwise we would see it happening all the time.

I don’t know enough about law to know how that does or does not work, but it that’s possible then any entity with enough money can actively bankrupt anyone they want, and it won’t have anything to do with why. If that’s true could you not just sue someone by making stuff up and force them to prove you made it up?

Did the admins state anything? I thought the issue here is that LW previously did something without an announcement, undid it and promised to communicate before doing something like that again, and now people are saying they haven’t communicated this time.

That’s the real issue, not the fact that it was defederated.

You could list your accounts in priority, and the highest account that has access to the post you’re reading will be responsible for the vote.

Copyright laws are actually very difficult to enforce when it comes to digital piracy. You have to prove loss of profit among other things.

Then, who do you sue? The person downloading the product? The person hosting the product? The person providing a link to the hosted data? The person providing a platform for people to link things? The person who allows their platform to federate with another platform that does?

If we’re talking about P2P sharing, then in a way no one is hosting the data.

In Australia when the Dallas Buyers Club case was being looked at, the studio was asking for a lot of money. Basically a big fat fine to be paid. The judge threw it out saying that the only reasonable damages for one person to pay would be the cost of the DVD because that was the value of the “theft”.

I guess the question is: if you host a public forum, are you liable for things posted on it, or on separate but linked forums?
