(Anonymous) 2022-08-22 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)I wish some of these commenters would go read Twitter threads by actual living authors about how much they make in royalties, etc. So many still have full-time jobs. It's not some glamorous existence for most.

(Anonymous) 2022-08-22 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)Lengthy copyright terms are not a good way to solve that problem, at all. They don't really increase compensation for creators that much, and they have real, meaningful societal costs.
This is not a situation where wanting lower copyright terms means you hate creators.

(Anonymous) 2022-08-23 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)Copyright as a concept has a use, for sure, but copyright (as currently enshrined in US law at least) has definitely been reworked and rewritten to benefit Disney and maybe a handful of huge business ventures, not indie authors. The latter would benefit far more from things like UBI and robust social safety bets than trying to rigorously police their IP.
