That’s brilliant. It’s a shame it will have no impact and the copyright mafia will continue their relentless assault until we are all microchipped at birth with neural inhibitors that physically prevents us from consuming digital material we haven’t purchased. Brain-implant DRM is the end goal.
The year is 2060. I’m getting ready to watch my favorite movie. I have no idea what it’s about; my NeuraLink prevents me from retaining unlicensed memories of someone else’s intellectual property. But Amazon tells me I’ve watched it over thirty times and given it an average of 4.7 stars over those viewings, which is crazy high; even stuff other people like I tend to rate under 3 stars. Apparently I’m snobby, or maybe some kind of pervert. Without more information about the content, I have no practical way of knowing. If you go on the dark web supposedly you can find forums where people will write descriptions of what they claim the films are like, but folks who have sought that stuff out consistently rate the films lower on subsequent viewings, so it’s probably not worth it. At least that’s what my AI assistant tells me.
