      ???

      how is it an enclosure? the “original” works are all exactly where they were when they were scraped. (and the “original” of a digital thing is a real fucken weird concept too, the first time that image existed was in the computer’s RAM, or maybe the pixels in a particular state on the artist’s monitor, the one that you see on the internet is like 5 generations of copy already)

      like fuck these companies and the peter theil types behind them to death but superman 4-ing fractions of pennies from the take a penny tray isn’t theft just because you do it a billion times, and copying isn’t theft at all.
