>>"I disagree with what the other person responded, that movie watching and listening to music are not hobbies, of course they are."
It's possible to argue about what qualifies as a hobby (or a 'real' hobby), but it'd be extraordinarily unlikely that people were thinking of pastimes which were basically just consumption of content when they framed the exemption, not least since if simply consuming content was counted as an excuse for unauthorised copying, that'd make pretty much any nonprofitmaking copying OK, and that's fairly clearly not what was intended.
>>"Look at the most recent fuck up with age ratings, where they found age ratings were actually unenforcable such that anyone selling 18 rated games or whatever to kids wasn't doing anything wrong. It took them what, 20 years or so to even notice and fix that problem."
To a large extent, if few other people noticed either, the 'problem' wasn't that great, since the ratings did work to significantly restrict what got sold to who.
