firecat: Your analysis is very impressive! Thanks for putting in the effort. Got nothing to add there, you pretty much said it all.
Unfortunately that's missing the point. According to our friend here, we're now supposedly trying to suppress a piece of proposed legislation (that wouldn't apply to us for at least two reasons). Which assumes the Itch staff somehow has the time and resources to lobby the US Congress, even if it made sense to do so in the first place. There's a word for that, and I probably don't need to say it.
We're going to cut this conversation short really soon now. The decision has already been made. Thanks again for all the help.
