  1. Well for starters it’s possible for a non profit to own a for profit company. secondly, a non profit is actually allowed to make a profit, contrary to misconceptions. it just can’t freely distribute the surplus to directors or presidents. It cannot have shareholders.
  2. It does seem a bit strange. Here’s the original video announcement again: https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/SeriesOrgAccomplishments/pub-mwbv_202003_4_VIDEO And they did phase out the dedicated JWB website but not WOL (yet?) *note the JWB apps for Roku and Apple TV remain, although they don’t seem to be updated much and lack some audio-only content such as Bible readings They have yet to add the full search feature to JWL—perhaps that’s why they haven’t phased them out yet? Or perhaps they’ve decided to keep them around (although if that was the case they would probably have an announcement)
  3. If you (or anyone else) wants the trailer for episodes 4-6 I can send it on telegram
  4. I believe the term you’re looking for is “colonizer” also known as invaders
  5. Whether it’s legal or not is completely beside the point as my question is what the letter we received meant when it said “posting” — perhaps even the publishing department at WHQ hasn’t considered that pasting a link in fact is “posting an entire copyrighted work” — it’s no different
  6. Those are two totally different domains It doesn’t at all. But thank you for the attempt, it’s appreciated. To me, pasting a link that doesn’t even take you to jw.org (even though the phrase “jw” and “org” appear somewhere in the url) seems not in the spirit of the direction, although it is still debatable — I wish the organization would be clearer. Secondly, there is no real difference between (1) embedding a file by pasting a direct file link; the file is now “posted” vs (2) downloading the file and uploading it again stop in fact, if I’m scenario 2 you include a caption or link to jw.org you can rightfully argue it is better than pasting a file link
  7. Edit; woah, I see this forum software takes it further and hides the link I pasted! So there is no link at all (however the video still show the source at the end of the video) on discord you get the link (the domain is jw-cdn.org) and the playable video
  8. You’ll need to clarify this statement: many friends have been copying the download link (which is in fact publicly viewable on JW.org webpages) — but if you paste that link onto many platforms such as Discord or Telegram (probably all the messaging apps?) then it does not direct to jw.org — so is this ok? The announcement to the congregations still did not clarify this at all. Perhaps it’s only permissible if you add a second link to JW.org ? Or is it wrong to paste links to files which we copied from jw.org download links Example:
  9. So we don’t actually know the release schedule after 2026?
  10. was @Araujo JW the first one to mention it? I could ask him where he found it
  11. I’m quite confident that not every witness knew this, but thank you for your input now move along
  12. it looks like we're gonna have 3 episodes at next year's convention, based on previous year's convention trailer
