    In the US it’s cheap but unregulated

    It’s the exact opposite actually.

    US sunscreen is way worse than sunscreen in other parts of the world like the EU. It doesn’t block the harmful radiation as well. The reason is that it’s more strictly regulated in the US. IIRC it’s not considered a cosmetic product but instead it’s a medical product.

    As such it’s subject to much stricter regulation and requires much more (expensive) testing before being allowed on the market. Due to this it’s considered too expensive to introduce the newer, more advanced sunscreen products in the US so you’re stuck with the older, crappier sunscreen.






  • No. I own that copy. It’s not a license to anything. I own it. It’s mine. That’s what the money was for.

    Yeah that’s not how copyright works. You are either the owner of the IP (i.e. the company that paid for developing the game) or you need a license to be allowed to own/play a copy. There is no third option here.

    Don’t play corporate word games with concepts as basic as having things.

    It’s not word games, it’s the law. You and I may not like it but that doesn’t really change anything.
