tl;dw Europeans don't use camels because they're overrated.

And so are wheels.

Yeah.

Forgetting while searching for a pen is also a thing. (It'll be in my bloody pocket, the one I always carry a pen in!)

So yeah.

In Denmark the case surrounding "Nøddebo præstegård" caused copyright to be enacted.

I've noticed the theme come up in other countries, amongst these France, but I'll grant that I may have overestimated its importance by overfitting to prior knowledge.

The purpose of copyright in the USA, and as far as I know in Brittain, yes.

But please remember that in much of the rest of the world copyright is a reaction to people, creators, getting in trouble over third party usage of their creations.

Leading to the idea that a creator should have the power to stop people from using their works for whatever the creator deems objectionable.

Denmark has 880 Pirates of all kinds and they "reach" 46% of 15-24 year olds?

That's some bloody effective Pirates right there!

You're right!

(Still think they might be doing just that, some of them.)

That thing where they claim the username/password combo is wrong?

That sounds like a really good idea if the site thinks the reason they're a lot of different lock-on attemps from that one ip is because its a hacker with a list of stolen credentials.

Basically just tell them their list is fake and "go away and stop bothering our customers, please."

The usual solution outside the US is to not mention the state at all.

All you need is a right to privacy, not a list of those who are not allowed to peek

State law is one thing, but to me it seems obvous that "his or her right to be secure in their papers" has been broken.

Edit: Unfortunately the founders formulated that as a limit on government, again not actually succeding in securing any rights.

Mr Musk is trying to figure out how to get in worse trouble than what he's already in with Twitter?
