Universal Music says that it will pull its song catalog from TikTok tomorrow at midnight, as the companies are unable to reach a deal on rights. Huge implications. (twitter.com)

The people who created the modern form of chess are long since dead, so they don't have any idea of my existence at all. Yet I still enjoy playing chess. Should I not enjoy the game because the people who created it don't care about me at all?

So what's your message here mean?

I took it as 'i don't care about how companies behave and neither should you'.

How does one get from me enjoying chess despite the fact that the creators don't care about me...to me not caring what companies do? That's a massive logical leap.

Hey, that was your analogy for the topic at hand(which was companies behaving poorly iirc), wasn't it?

No.

Lmao okay. Here's a fun riddle.

What does everyone who interacts with you and the creators of chess have in common?
