re: Suppressed Study: Three Myths about Copyright Law and Where to Start to Fix it

I disagree, but then that gets into AnCap philosophy and why I don't believe that intellectual property actually exists, and there's no need for that in this thread.

i think making it harder to receive protection and limiting the time periods would do some good to clean the system up

Neither do I. From a pragmatic standpoint, I would be just fine with copyright law as originally enacted in the USA (14 years initial, option for 14 year renewal).

But I also have no problem violating and advocating the violation of the asinine laws that are in place now, even to the point of extremism. Because that's the only way things will change.




But really, I think going forward in the future, we're going to see a world where the concept of intellectual property is just not realistic. Technology will simply make it infeasible. JMO.
