Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

![Numerous Copyright Act provisions both identify authors
as human beings and define “machines” as tools used by
humans in the creative process rather than as creators
themselves. Because many of the Copyright Act’s provisions
make sense only if an author is a human being, the best reading
of the Copyright Act is that human authorship is required for
registration.
First, the Copyright Act’s ownership provision is
premised on the author’s legal capacity to hold property. A
copyright “vests initially in the author[.]” 17 U.S.C. § 201(a).
This means an “author gains ‘exclusive rights’ in her work
immediately upon the work’s creation.” Fourth Estate Pub.
Benefit Corp. v. Wall-Street.com, LLC, 586 U.S. 296, 300-301,
(2019) (quoting 17 U.S.C. § 106). Because a copyright is
fundamentally a property right created by Congress, and
Congress specified that authors immediately own their
copyrights, an entity that cannot own property cannot be an
author under the statute.
Second, the Copyright Act limits the duration of a
copyright to the author’s lifespan or to a period that
approximates how long a human might live. A copyright
generally “endures for a term consisting of the life of the author
and 70 years after the author’s death.” 17 U.S.C. § 302(a). The](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:24vva42nxim6zbcmnozegoef/bafkreiefasksdbsyreeszm4auwafskv7mztrqavqbtbohidj5j56jfe4xi)
