We will not be able to freely access the movies, books, and music that we have loved. I would be a have-not. That’s what I’m afraid of. This is not greed.– HIDEO_KOJIMA (@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN) August 5, 2021

Over time, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it can be suddenly cut off.
We will not be able to freely access the movies, books, and music that we love. It would be a ‘not to have’. That’s what scares me. This is not greed.
What do you think? Do you agree with him? Do not hesitate to leave it in the comments.
