Interesting how artists don't make enough money from their creations, so our solution is to make certain information illegal to share, rather than give them a universal basic income.

To me copyright is one of the more undesirable aspects of capitalism, for the reason I mentioned. I don’t think you really have a right to prosecute people for copying, repurposing and remixing the stuff you’ve made just so you can personally profit, that would be just selfishness if it wasn’t something of a necessary evil to make sure creators can have a way to survive.
