Yes they can, otherwise Disney can decide that that DVD you bought 10 years ago, youβre no longer allowed to have and you must destroy it.
Right to be forgotten is bullshit, not from an ideological standpoint right, but purely from a practicality stand point the old rule of once its on the internet its on the internet forever stands true. Thatβs not even getting started on the fact that right to be forgotten is about your personal information, not any material you may publish that is outside of that.
Disney can decide to terminate that license but the disc is another story. The license is for the media on the disc but the physical disc itself is owned by the person who bought it. This is literally why a company can remove a show or movie or song from your digital library. The license holder can always revoke the license. It was harder to enforce with physical media (and cost prohibitive in a lot of cases), but still possible.
No, they canβt Google first sale doctrine.
They can remove shit from your digital library because in page 76 of the terms and conditions that you didnβt read, they redefined the word purchase to mean temporarily rent.
Itβs the same licensing agreement. I phrased what I said to specifically adhere to what they say in their own terms of use in accordance with FCC regulation.

If you were to, say in 1990, get caught broadcasting your copy of a Disney movie without the legal ability to do so, they could absolutely use the court system to revoke your right to the licensed copy of that media and have it confiscated.
No. When you purchase the dvd you become the owner of that specific disc⦠you never gained ownership of my website just because you visited and copied my content.
Yes, and when I archived your website, I became the owner of that specific copy of your website.
Iβd better never see you bitching about AI scraping your content. Iβll remind you of this very comment.
No, I never granted you any ownership of my content. Period. You didnβt pay me, you didnβt engage in any contract with me.
Simply archiving my stuff and running away then publishing it as your own is theft.
You compare entirely different things here. Iβm talking about a website i own not a product i sell. And no, this βon the internet foreverβ is complete and utter nonsense that was never true to begin with. the amount of stuff lost to time easely dwarfs the one still around.
You chose to distribute said website to everyone on the internet. I chose to exercise my rights of fair use to make a local convenience copy of said website. I can then theoretically hold, said local convenience copy, for as long as I want, until your copyright expires, at which point I can publish it.
Itβs a bold assumption that that data is not just sitting on someoneβs hard drive somewhere.
You are moving the goalpost. again. The talk was about the Internet Archive providing a copy of my website to the public. Not you storing it somewhere on your drive for personal use. Although thatβs also a rather tricky legal matter.
But nice for you to agree with the rest. Yes, you could at one point publish a copy. 70 Years after my death. and not a second before that. and only if its not specific protected because i contains personal information. i think the protection is not limited in that case.
