The problem is that due to influence peddling, copyright law has lost its mooring.
It is supposed to ensure
-to the author,
-reasonable compensation,
and it is supposed to ensure that
-the work is turned over to the public after a reasonable time.
It is also supposed to permit fair uses of copyrighted works.
What we have now is:
-money which flows mostly to large corporations who are not authors
-a flow of money for vastly unreasonable periods of time
-the virtual abolition of fair use.
I am in favor of copyright law. What we have now is not copyright law.
