Okay so for context: I've never really downloaded movies right after release, the movies that I've downloaded were all released at least few months before the time of download, so I don't know how movies releases work.

So when a movie is released, how long does it take for there to be a high-quality pirated version of it? I can't seem to find the movie on an online platform even if I were to pay for it. Are movies exclusive to an actual theater when they first get released? Right now I'm searching for that movie that was just released and all I find is HDCAMs. Does this mean that someone just secretly recorded it in a theater?

Oh btw, the movie I'm talking about is about a scientist that was involved in (at the time) a secret government weapons program during WW2. The movie was released very recently. (Hey, I didn't mentioned the name of the movie, I hope I'm not breaking the rules 😉)

Who determines who owns a domain name? International organization? Do unrecognized countries also get their own top-level domain? If someone or some organization wanted to register a website for highly illegal activities (terrorism, crime organizations, etc) who has the authority to shut them down? Does one government has the authority, or does it require a majority of the countries? What if, say, North Korea hosted a website advocating terrorism? Who can take that down?

I mean, a state that is forseeing a election which an opponent party will likely win, could just pass a law before the election that says "The state legislature shall have the sole authority of appointing electors to the electoral college for elections of president and vice president" and if they have an already gerrymandered state legislature, they could cling to power with like 40%, or maybe even less, of the votes and have a trifecta in the state, electoral votes are practically permanently voting for the party. They could even change how governors are selected by making them to also be appointed by legislature, further solidifying their power.

Why haven't some states just gone full authoritarian? I mean, the federal government couldn't do anything about such states if this were to happen, due to federalism.

I mean, people use dash-cams protect themselves in case of a car crash, so do you think people in the future would also use body-cams protect themselves in case of being involved in a fight?
