    If other countries want to get serious about fighting back they need to announce they’re dropping out of the Berne Convention.

    That treaty benefits the US more than anyone else and especially not small countries. The only reason why small countries signed on to it in the first place is because of things like USAID and avoiding tariffs!

    If the US is ending USAID and putting tariffs on fucking everything then why TF would these countries continue to protect US copyrights basically forever.

    I was surprised as heck that Columbia bent over and didn’t just announce that they’re dropping out and will start hosting the biggest “pirate” website ever where they only honor the first 15 years of copyright.
