fatherboxx posted:"Smart contracts" and DAOs are so frustatingly attempts at legal contracts designed as imagined by programmers in all aspects. Their problems are evident to anyone with basic understanding of law (and its practical realization); very similar to how hard it is explaining legality (most importantly - how exactly solve issues when there is a dispute or things go to poo poo) to programmers (and programmers-turned-managers and executives) in my daily work.

Arquinsiel posted:Getting people to realise that "smart contracts" are at best half of what a real contract actually does is a surprisingly difficult task. It's really odd that nobody notices that every contract they ever signed has a method to modify or terminate all or some of the contract without requiring a complete new contract to be signed. The breaking point here is that nobody actually reads contracts that they sign anymore. Even when you're looking at a physical document in front of you (not just those user agreements on websites and programs we all skip through) those paper forms are all designed to be as impenetrable as they legally can be. So you wind up with people who, at best, half-understand what all the clauses mean, and whoever is handing the forms over probably doesn't know either and would have to pull in their manager to translate it, so they'd rather distract you with something else so you hurry up and sign.

Yeah, we'll see, but "we're getting inspiration from Web3 and the blockchain" seems like... nothing. Although I could see an awful attempt to monetize youtube links.

youtube is probably the last place that would be able to take advantage of NFTs, given that half of NFT scams involve some sort of copyright infringement (still lolling at $inuyasha) and Youtube is heavy on copyright-scraping algorithms

"Getting inspiration from Web3" is definitely the giveaway that it's just empty corporate waffle because the entire 'point' (in as much as one exists outside of simply creating new financial speculation markets) of Web3 is to completely remove corporations like Youtube from the web.

It's not subject to copyright because you can't copy an NFT, man. He also tried to pull the "we're all looking for the guy who did this" about who was responsible for it (it was him, he was responsible for stealing the name and likeness for the coin.)

I like how NFT's are both "You get this specific thing only you can have" and "This isn't copyright, everything is fair use" at the same time.

NFT video was real good, I think the really prescient point that I will absolutely use going forward when explaining why I am against crypto/NFT's etc is that they are incapable of actually generating any new value: they are just a speculation vehicle that you invest in hoping that somebody will eventually come along and be willing to offer you more for it than what you paid. An extended game of hot potato that as icing on the cake is helping set the planet on fire faster.

Grouchio posted:Remember TotallyNotMark? loving hell Toei is psychopathic, I thought they were just clicking their automated content claim button and letting it sit at that but no there were human beings manually claiming his videos and arguing back and forth to Youtube about why his vidoes should stay down. Just loving ghoul poo poo. Glad he got his videos back for now outside of Japan and hopefully Toei either doesn't keep fighting or their attempts to provide justification for takedown aren't accepted by Youtube now that they actually have eyes on the situation. Also I agree with Mark that the ultimate irony in all this is that what initially set Toei off into aggressive takedowns was their hatred of DBZA, even though DBZA - for all its faults and when it itself arguably does not fall under fair use - is the primary reason Dragon Ball remained culturally relevant in the English-speaking west. Without it there's like a decade long period between the release of the Kai dub and Battle of the Gods where there was simply nothing officially coming out of the property over here.

Getty in particular was very involved from a very early moment in the movement. She was an ally before they even knew to call it an “ally”!

Grouchio posted:At the 9:50 mark. Edited link. Ghostlight posted:Japan has a much narrower view of what constitutes fair use than most countries and as such Toei would not provide the justification for the infringement that would be necessary to continue the case in other legal jurisdictions, because legally for them it is not necessary to do so. As a compromise, the channel is blocked in Japan but it remains up in other copyright jurisdictions until that justification is provided and the legal dispute begins. Thanks! I didn't know about Japan's narrow view on fair use, and what Youtube did is probably the one that makes the most sense (content restriction based on jurisdiction)

I think Abridged played a big role, but even before Battle of Gods came out we still had the fighting games, Kai, and debatably Evolution at least keeping the series in peoples' minds.
