So, @eff I appreciated your article, but y'all wrote it showing some clear ignorance of some finer points of tabletop gaming history (link for context: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/01/beware-gifts-dragons-how-dds-open-gaming-license-may-have-become-trap-creators)

Specifically - this bit right here:

Beware the Gifts of Dragons: How D&D’s Open Gaming License May Have Become a Trap for Creators

I'm seeing hot takes that the new #OGL (image) will give #WotC the right to licensed IP for games, like #DoctorWho through C7.

That's *not* how it works.

With the usual caveat that I've worked with a lot of licenses but am not a lawyer... (1/🧵)

Hang on! This had an anime adaptation. It's OOP, but it was adapted to an anime film that was licensed by Central Park Media back in the day. (Even got aired on the Sci-Fi channel a few times)

I've already cancelled my HBO Max subscription. This makes me wish I could cancel it harder.
