Context is everything.
I reckon Tesla and Bitcoin haven't been keeping up with their payola.

Nobody is saying copyright law shouldn't exist.

if the sentence is in any way based on an assumption of guilt for a crime he wasn't actually tried for.
Per the last stats I saw, home ownership in CA is actually higher than average. A great many hovels are owner-occupied, especially in the rural areas. And there's an astonishing lot of CA that still doesn't have electric service, including well-populated canyons -- some within 15 miles of Los Angeles.

There's still a big killer lurking out in space that can't be easily avoided: radiation.
Except underground, which is the obvious solution but people are too fixated on making housing above the ground.
Except the article was talking about getting killed by the radiation exposure during the trip.
Presumably you aren't suggesting flying to Mars in a hobbit-hole. (Though if you could sneak a couple of tokes on Gandalf's pipe you might experience a good simulation.)

I guess the Sixth Dynasty of Old Kingdom Egypt didn't notice they got washed away, and went on building their pyramids like nothing had happened.
And Sargon must have clung to the side of the ark - or snuck on disguised as a dinosaur - so he could get back to building his empire as soon as the ground dried out.
