Topics
Linus: 美国电影协会计划与美国国会合作,通过立法要求美国互联网服务提供商屏蔽盗版相关网站。这项立法能否有效打击盗版值得怀疑,因为VPN等技术手段可以轻易绕过封锁。此外,将盗版行为与实际经济损失直接挂钩是不准确的,因为许多盗版用户本来就不会购买正版。打击盗版网站的尝试效果不佳,因为用户通常已经使用VPN,所以这项立法意义不大。除非彻底改变北美互联网接入方式,否则这项立法难以有效实施。 Linus: 游戏公司通过调整区域定价,可以有效降低特定地区的盗版率并提高销量。盗版并非完全没有影响,但其影响程度往往被夸大,很多时候盗版是由于内容获取不便或价格过高造成的。他小时候盗版游戏后往往玩得不多,盗版行为并不会导致所有潜在销售额的损失。 Linus: 媒体制作行业面临的真正问题是缺乏有创意、有吸引力的内容,而非单纯的盗版问题。媒体行业声称盗版导致大量工作岗位流失的说法站不住脚,因为缺乏创新内容才是行业困境的根源。关于盗版的论调往往被夸大,其对行业的经济影响虽然存在,但难以准确量化。在Netflix盛行的时期,盗版行为的意义并不大,因为人们可以通过订阅服务方便地获取内容。美国盗版率逐年上升,这与流媒体服务的数量众多以及获取内容的不便有关。他不会购买依赖于特定服务的电影或电视剧,因为他更希望拥有永久的拷贝。盗版本身并非道德问题,但需要考虑其对行业的影响。要使打击盗版的立法生效,需要彻底改变北美互联网的理念,这几乎不可能实现。 Luke: 使用VPN可以轻易绕过对盗版网站的封锁,这项立法效果有限。他个人认为下载盗版游戏并非道德问题,而是出于懒惰。除非彻底改变北美互联网接入方式,否则这项立法难以有效实施。如果VPN广告宣传中含有误导性内容,他们将不会再次接受VPN的赞助。许多创作者对VPN赞助的负面评价,源于部分创作者对VPN技术的误解和宣传的失实。他们曾考虑过开发自己的VPN,但由于法律和道德方面的顾虑而放弃了。
