"Commercial publishers prefer institutions to sign up to a leasing #subscription model, as they offer little in the way of perpetual rights. This means that if a #Library decides to cancel, they have no owned content to show for their expenditure."
PS: I hope #libraries can afford to steer clear of this atrocious model. It uses their need to deliver access to patrons against them.

I don't have a problem with something like FACTOR if I could grab a few of those from the store and pay cash.
Why is everything a #subscription ?
I used to subscribe to Apple Music and then stopped. When I subscribed again, I had lost all my hand-curated playlists that I had carefully crafted over the years.
I’m done with this subscription-based life where everything you cherish can and will be taken away from you. So I took the radical decision to own my music, like we used to when iPods were fashionable.
And you can too.

tatsächlich bin ich Dein einziger Abonnent? Was ist los mit Deinen anderen Leuten? Und überhaupt der ganzen Welt?
Das ist doch ein famoser Log, den Du schreibst. Allein für diesen Grünkohl-Skalierungs-Text lohnt es sich doch wohl zu abonnieren."

@kkarhan@infosec.space@zdl @evacide that any the fact that @signalapp is incorportated in the #USA, making them susceptible to #GDPR & #BDSG-incompatible #cyberfacist bs like #CloudAct.
Remember: #KYC IS THE ILLICIT ACTIVITY when it comes to #Communication!
Compare that to @monocles / #monoclesChat which don't demand any PII or KYC and allow people to pay for their services with #Monero and #CashByMail besides #SEPA #WireTransfer, #Stripe & #PayPal whilst supporting both decentralization (#XMPP is not a #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider solution!), implementing real #SelfCustody (#OMEMO, #OTR & #PGP is supported out of the box) for all the keys, and proper #Anonymitiy (using @torproject / #Tor & @guardianproject #Orbot for #privacy), so in case they ever get a duely sumitted warrant by a court they'd have to comply with, they'll most likely have no data whatsoever on clients that could allow identification.
Also having no PII is a matter of reducing #liability in the sense of #DataProtection: All data requested and by #monocles is the bare minimum mandated for #accounting (i.e. only linking a payment like a #TxID / Transaction-ID to an account and then adding up validity/activation period).
#subscription : consent or attestation by underwriting the name
- French: abonnement
- German: das Abonnement
- Italian: sottoscrizione
- Portuguese: incrição
- Spanish: suscripción

@kkarhan@infosec.spaceApparently #Toshiba rushed #HDDVD so hard to the market they literally released [www.youtube.com] a #Pentium4-based #Linux box with a #Desktop #Drive as their first #Player...
Please, go ahead!
So in the format war of blu-ray vs HD-DVD vs #HDVMD (yes you read right [www.youtube.com] there existed a 3rd format [www.youtube.com], HD-VMD, that just tried to do absurd layer numbers to still use red lasers and be in theory cheaper to make discs and drives for!), the real winner are shitty Streaming Services like #Netflix and the like.
I just don't pirate so I can talk about it!
Nothing says winter fun like pelting each other with balls made from pressed together shreds of ice! Time for a SNOWBALL FIGHT!
You can get these new stickers by joining my sticker club any time in December!
