This is the stupidest thing I've read in a long time. If you think there are only 6 "media companies" and that they all get their news from AP or Reuters, then you need to get the fuck off the internet for a while.

I need more details, dude. If I hung out with them for a year, would a new me appear or would we all grow older together? In the case of the latter, would a new 1 year old me appear when the previous 1 year old me turned 2? These are important considerations!

Don't get your hopes up, the chances of him going to prison, or bring punished in any way, are basically zero.

In not a lawyer, but I think the recordings are what is owned by the label. As long as she wrote the song, she can re-record and release the new recordings.

There was also the Arab spring that same year where those governments cut access to communication.

What governments are and are not authoritarian is honestly a matter of perspective. No government should disrupt or intercept private communication between law abiding citizens without reasonable suspicion that there is imminent danger to human life.

If you want to reduce lag, join an instance other than lemmy.world. its a fine instance, but probably over loaded. You can see and interact with pretty much all Lemmy content from any instance. I think kbin will be better, but needs an app.

This is like me saying there is a Lego shortage because I'm unwilling to pay for more Lego.
