Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

It's not easy to just open an LLC in every country.
It doesn’t need to be every country - just one.
Not very easy to open an LLC in a different country
The domain is registered in Finland, so someone at the top must live or have a proxy presence there.
In what countries was Reddit registered in then?
Don't know. USA I guess? Why does it matter
Because they had no problem allowing r/piracy to exist before everything went to shit
Ye but people in Europe can't just open an llc in the USA
They can, it's just called a SRL^1 in most countries
Edit: i mean they can open an equivalent loclaly (GmbH^2, AB^3, etc)

I am aware and this is what my original comment was referring to. It's not always easy to open one of these.
