The wider issue is that the whole system of copyright/patents/"intellectual property" etc. was introduced in a world where a physical copy of some sort was required to transfer information (book, paper, tape, vinyl disc, optical disk, clay tablet, wax cylinder etc. etc.). We no longer live in that world.
We now live in a world where any information that is stored digitally can be immediately replicated any number of times. At will. So the whole system of copyright and "intellectual property" is no longer fit for purpose and is unenforcable. You can sit making rules & laws until the end of time but in the mantime the information will be freely flowing regardless.
The only solution is a complete overhaul of the whole economic/financial system in relation to ideas/knowledge. Which leads on to the wider question of how access to resources should be controlled within a modern society ? As the current fiat monetary system isn't working either (unless you're one of the few that are gatekeepers to fiat currency creation !).
