PS IMO copyright laws should be abolished altogether. At the very
least one should pay for copyright protection. One €1 for the first
year, €2 for the second, €4 for the third and so on exponentially.
Why should I have to pay money for the right to own my own creations?
You shouldn't have to. IMO the government shouldn't interfere with other
people distributing your creations without your permission.
I offered a compromise: the government steps in to defend your monopoly
to your creation and you will pay for the protection -- exponentially.
At what point does a creation have to be paid for - do I pay only if I
think that I can make money off it? If I fail to pay, what happens -
No money, no protection.
So those with the most money can buy the most protection?
