      Sometimes I wonder what they would do if you could make endless perfect copies of objects like you can mp3s.

      Dududdo you wouldn’t copy a car. You wouldn’t copy a cheeseburger Copying is a crime.

      Like remember it’s only been recently that it became possible to make endless copies of media at effectively no cost.

        They would figure it out some way to enforce artificial scarcity. Can’t have poor people getting free stuff without being worthy.
