@samupaha I get where you are coming from, that is where I prefaced my comment, saying that copyright law is biased towards large corporations with deep pockets.
But, no, that is not all. There are many other smaller cases, some that I know of personally where friends used said laws to protect their work. Your comment leads me to believe that you do not make a living from your creative work.
Protection is needed, but not the biased extremes the media corporations are pushing.
I don't think you understand this. You look this only from the perspective of small scale freelancers and forget everybody else.
I look at this from the perspective of the whole society. We just don't need copyright, it creates much more harm than good for the whole society.
