It’s a very muddy area. Game clones have existed ever since video games existed and using copyrights to fight this is imho going to cause a lot more problems than it solves. Sure, go after the extortionists, but stretching copyright law to do it, is going to fuck us all over.

That copyright protection is only against using recognisable characters, samples etc and has a high evidentiary requirement. It doesn’t apply to art styles, prose, game mechanics and so on.

Copyright violation is punishable by law, yes. But it’s it’s not theft.

A billionaire’s company feeding a machine all human thought for purposes of replacing said human is absolutely theft.

It’s immoral sure, but not theft. We don’t need to equivocate to pass moral judgement.

Copyright violations aren’t stealing. Human thought cannot be “stolen”, only shared.

Copyrights won’t help you here. It’s not the same code or assets

You mean if Israel gives order

We used to run mlmym but it was starting to cause issues when it became unmaintained.

Would be good to have a dedicated community in lemmy where to bots would @ when posting, so that there’s native cross-posting in masto and threadiverse.

Which can also be lovely further embellished such as “πάρε φορά και κλάσε μου τ’αρχιδια” (“take momentum and fart my testicles”) or “θα μου κλάσεις μια μάντρα αρχίδια” (“You’ll fart me a yard of testicles”, usually utilized as a defiant answer to a physical threat)
