There are definitely non copyrighted videos! Both old videos (all still black and white I think) and also things released into the public domain by copyright holders.
But for sure that's a very small subset of videos.

It's unclear to me what your point is.
Is it that this is roughly equivalent to €345 today, and we should point out the current worth?
Or is it that the purchasers go 10 years of value for €270 and so this is a big nothing burger?
He is currently featured in a Humble Bundle, so if you read digital books (I use a tablet, my wife a ebook reader, but you can also use a phone or laptop) then you can get many of his books cheaply (without DRM, of course).

I think that we can expect more propaganda from big tech, including political pressure from the USA. Fighting capitalism is going to be a long battle!
I reboot every box monthly to flush out such issues. It's not perfect, since it won't catch things like circular dependencies or clusters failing to start if every member is down, but it gets lots of stuff.
I decided to fast for Ramadan one year. I'm not religious, I just wondered what it was like. I knew it was dawn to dusk fasting, but didn't know that you can't drink anything either. I did an obstacle race with my son on weekend in 25 degree Celsius weather and it was very, very tough.
Anyway, I'm not sure there is such a thing as "normal" fasting. 😄
I didn't know there was a -delete option to find! I've been piping to xargs -0 for decades!
I had a Helios that literally just started having trouble powering SATA disks a few days ago. I got it in 2019 I think, so only 5 years of life.
I use Linux LVM and either ext4 (for older volumes) or btrfs (for newer volumes, because I want the checksums across the data) so in principle I could throw the disks in a PC as a temporary solution.
I have put the disks in SATA to USB 2.0 caddies, and the Helios 4 kind of still works, but I'm ordering a couple of Orange Pi 5 and with USB 3.0 disk enclosures to replace it. It was kind of time anyway, since Nextcloud has dropped support for 32-bit CPU.
I believe that being publicly traded means that you are obligated to maximize shareholder returns, whereas a privately-held company can have literally any goals, as long as it pays taxes and follows the law.
There are literally dozens of alternative products to the Raspberry Pi, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Do a web search for "single board computer" or even just "raspberry pi alternatives", and see for yourself.
It! It! It! It! It!
I'm reminded that Macs did not have right buttons for decades because Steve Jobbs didn't want them.
