mimic

@igz0: I think it’s a perfect score for complaint handling, but I think the service has lost a lot of its appeal. “If the inventor of the photocopier had taken care that only the author could copy his work, would he have become a billionaire?” The story.

@nishio: very good analogy: “What would happen if the inventor of a copier machine created a ‘copier that only the author can use’ in consideration of criticism that there are ‘copyright infringement concerns’? What would happen if the inventor of the copier machine made a “copier that only the author can use” in response to criticism that it might infringe on copyright?
