Your posts show an obvious bias against spaceX. Why the hate?

Bias? Im critical of the US government's intellectual property policy in relation to spacex contracts and speak to nothing else. If that constitutes some sort of bias then unbiased criticism is impossible.

Id be critical of any privatization of something that was once public domain, specifically spacelaunch footage.

SpaceX footage was never public domain. It’s completely different camera systems, etc. There is no regression here in rights because they are completely different things.

It sounds like your problem is with the government not putting speculations in the launch contracts to demand footage be released to public domain. That’s the real issue and that’s where it should be fixed.
