"The 25,000 is there to make sure you can cover some liability
here is the UK we can get liability insurance. For me, as a one person limited company, it was around 200 pounds, and it was tax deductible. There is no reason to have 25,000 euro deposit.
>>Sadly, it feels like I am slowly loosing my skill to identify LLM speak. Maybe I am getting worn out of all LLM content...
Its quite simple, at least by HN rules. If you dont like an article, post "This is LLM" and move on. Within 5 minute your post will be voted t o the top.
And the llm witch hunt crowd are here. "I dont like the post so it must be AI."

I can understand the art vs commercialism debate, but this is going too far in the other direction.
And before people start lecturing me: Yes I know some corproations are evil. Tintin's new owners didnt allow the original country Belgium to host a Tintin event because they wanted more money.
Corporate greed can totally kill art; but this is the other extreme, and will also lead to a slow death by people just forgetting about it
The article is a bit misleading-- it doesnt make it clear that par of the problem is even single player games stop working when access to a server is lost

Google was *exactly* this company it is today
