There is a caveat: license and usage fees for using the protected media have to be paid to the Belarus patent office. If a copyright holder will claim their rights they may be getting a minimum of 80% of those profits, provided that the Belarus patent office finds them entitled.

That said: not a great fan of the MPAA, but a dictatorship scares me a bit more when it comes to taking profits out of their hands.

Any Belarusian data centers we in the west can rent compute in?
