  • Well they do… But only barely and less so in the US lately.

    There are still cases of small artists getting compensation for big business using their images or music without consent. But sadly it is far from the norm.

    I agree with your core sentiment. Copyright is not working how it was intended and it is being abused by corporations.

    It might be because I’m not American, or because I am a musician and songwriter myself. but I still see a point to having some laws protecting the rights of the creative mind behind something.

    Removing copyright completely will only make it even more easy for the guys with the money and resources to exploit the small independent creators.

    But (American) copyright is severely broken. This is true.

    A starting point would be that the right is only tied to the specific creative(s) actually involved in the creation of something.


  • The thing is its only the copyrights of individual artists and creators that will die to this.

    The big corpos will find a way to protect their value, just you wait.

    They will steal from every single creative in the world and then sue them to hell and back if they use anything they them selves “own”

    This is not a threat to the copyrights that you want to die.
