    if I could download it and contribute to it by modifying it/improving it, then it would be something far greater than porn.

    some should make… whatever that is! an orgy?

      Can I not, though? With the proper software, I can add and alter video frames. This is still a bit limited now, but deepfakes are on the rise. I can already download someone else’s art and add in whatever I want.

      The only difference is whether or not the original creators/publishers approve of me doing that, not whether I’m able.

        Being able to modify a video game or reverse engineer a bit of code does not make that application open source.

        Maybe if a company published the finished video and the unedited footage under some open license.

        well, I suppose so, although the whole “open source” part might be a technical hangup. I don’t know of any porn licensed under the GPL! lol
