Re:The satirical Non-Fungible Olive Gardens sold more than $... by jjulius on Thursday December 23, 2021 @07:38PM (#29668440)
I suggested that you read the FAQ, and you quoted the first paragraph on the site, a paragraph that's not in the FAQ.

>Again, they are falsely promising "ownership of a franchise" and "representation of a franchise" right there in the website.

First, ctrl+F "ownership of a franchise" brings up no results, so you're misquoting the website. Second, "representation" is a word that can be used loosely; the NFT can be a representation of the franchise, but that doesn't mean you legally own it. I could sell a stick figure drawing of myself that represents me, but that doesn't mean that you own me.

>Nowhere does it say that the actual ownership will be of an image.

Correct, but it does say, in the FAQ:

>While every Non-fungible Olive Garden is tethered to a real Olive Garden, ownership is currently limited to the Non-fungible Olive Garden Metaverse, granting owners no rights or privileges in meatspace Olive Gardens.

It goes on to say:

>Is this affiliated with Olive Garden?

>No.

I am really not sure how much clearer they can get than that.
