@duckz @whatkatiediduk @EUCommission It's because #Google incentivizes using #GooglePlay and it's #API|s for everythibg from #AccountLogin, #CopyProtection / #DRM & #InAppPutchases to #PushNotifications!

IMHO: Piracy should be legal everytime one cannot legally obtain a copy of said content via a perpetual, offline-accessible (DRM-free!) one-time-purchase on physical media !

I mean, if a license / IP holder doesn't want to offer their copyrighted works under fair, reasonable & non-discriminatory terms then they shouldn't be allowed to cry about "loss of revenue" due to piracy!
- IMHO it's also a "Them - Problem" ["You-Problem"] if they're delisting it due to 3rd parties revoking/cancelling licensing…

I just got a DRM-free copy of "Kena - Bridge of Spirits" for under 10$... I really like this game, so I definitely wanted it for my GOG library and as an offline installer!

DRM ruins efforts at historical preservation. If all of our media is locked up in digital streaming platforms -- which will go under eventually -- how will it be preserved for future generations? Live DRM-free instead: https://u.fsf.org/1aj #EndDRM #DRM

Beware: the Sonic the Hedgehog comics from the Humble Bundle bundle appear to be DRM-tied

This bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/books/sonic-35th-anniversary-megabundle-idw-books

These #SonicTheHedgehog #ebooks are activated on Neon Ichiban, and they appear to have #DRM because, on the titles' pages, each has the "❌ Downloadable" tag under the title, like in the screenshot attached as an example, and have no other indication of technologies included or otherwise.

If Google carries on with its plans to close Android this September, I am probably going to invest in an 8- or 9-inch mini laptop. I figure it will do almost everything I can on my desktop, while still barely fitting in my Wrangler jeans' pockets. (At least Google intends to release millions of effectively sterile male mosquitoes into the wild to cull invasive populations, so there's that.)

They say "rights," we say "restrictions" #DRM are not for your digital /rights/, they are /restrictions/ imposed on you. Celebrate your own intellect by staying away from DRM. Learn more about DRM-free living at https://u.fsf.org/44y
