*What rights do you have to the digital movies, TV shows and music you buy online? That question was on the minds of Telstra TV Box Office customers this month after the company announced it would shut down the service in June. Customers were told that unless they moved over to another service, Fetch, they would no longer be able to access the films and TV shows they had bought. *

    You will own nothing and be happy.

    Unironically the future of capitalism, as it devolves into feudalism with more killer robots.

    You’ve got the CEO (Absolute Monarch) who owns all the shit and you work on it in exchange for not being killed or deported. Maybe you get some treats from time to time. More likely, you just get someone from the PMC to tell you to pray more.

    Humans in power are too egocentric to not be kept in check.

    A handful of humans with the power to deliver unlimited genocide on their neighbors are hard to keep in check.
