      They themselves said "We put a lot of work into these Three Pillars that are the whole reason we don't get sued" (collecting the archive of physical books, the tracking system to preserve the ratio, the self-destructing DRM on the files themselves)

      Then they said "Oh nvm we can push a button to turn off Pillar #2 if we feel like it" Why would you act surprised that this would upset the people they were trying to reassure by creating Pillar #2 in the first place

      not an issue of surprise. bootlickers & copyright trolls will do their thing regardless. an expected action does not absolve them of being called out for BS. IA acted for the good of the people, for a limited time. keeping the other limits in place, which they didn't have to.

      you yourself say how they did this knowing the result. which means they were under no obligation to keep the other limits. yet they did. during a crisis they helped out the less fortunate, and rich privileged people are crying about it.

      i would very much like to live in your world where every author who's nervous about this situation is "rich" and "privileged"

      or spoonfed BS propaganda by those that are. it's only been in recent years that people have even begun to realize you could get an audience WITHOUT being part of the major publishing houses. and that has been making the megacorps shit their pants.

      An audience that, typically, doesn't pay you any money and therefore is materially useless to you if you need to make rent

      Like seriously the reason I shifted my POV dramatically on this isn't really any abstract statement of principle over "ownership" or "property" It's just the material facts on the ground

      It's never been easier for artists to get likes and retweets, definitely Getting dollars? Not so much

      its never been easier for artists to earn a living, either. there are so many more outlets available. it still takes work, and talent, but better then dealing with the cartels and working in their narrow but powerful world.

      Whether or not it's better is really up for them to decide, and the opinion that it's better seems to be most commonly held by those who interact with art mostly as a consumer

          Also (not that they can see this), this leaves out that now the small artist is at the whims of patreon, and there’s not even laws or contracts protecting them from patreon altering the deal.

          YUP. And Patreon does, in fact, keep altering the deal and screwing artists badly.
