Comment There is no moral ground in copyright law (Score 1, Troll) 255
Copyright law was created to "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts", not to grand a monopoly right for the creator. The limited monopoly right is just the means to promote art, not the desired outcome. The current law of 150+ years (or is it now 300 years?) is absolutely not proportional. With better technology the copyright terms should be shortened and not extended. With our current digital technology, the term should be 5 years or even shorter. Almost everything today should be fair use, so that the authors finally create new characters and new stories, instead to reboot and retell the same stories over and over again.
