I am an artist who is VERY anti-IP law. The system as it exists is evil and does far more harm than good. IP is not some holy grail that deserves protection when it can be so easily abused. I would rather have no IP law than the current system, but I’ll settle for reforms.
That said, the prohibition of paid mods should be a cultural matter, not a legal one. It shouldn’t be illegal, but we as a gaming community should refuse to engage with them as poor practice

Makes me think of all the day care places with Disney characters painted outside the walls…
I agree with this.

Evil is a really strong word that I’m not sure I can get behind here.
It’s part of an overall system that protects the Haves from the Have-Nots. I consider it evil.
