I was wondering when piracy is going to join the game. Awkwardly absent so far.

One useful thing about the absolute stupid chaos is that there is hopefully too much absolute stupid chaos for anyone worth a damn to care too much about piracy.

(Though I don't think we should be resting on laurels either.)

The likes of RIAA and MPAA are probably still lobbying as always. Also don't forget the Internet Archive is being sued by record labels over copyright.

More than anything, people might be too distracted to defend IP related freedoms right now with all the other issues.

Hm, yeah, that's a fair concern.
