Well, if this was travel and not a fall down a very long, very dark hole, then one of the stops was learning when to say “I don’t know”.
I don’t have all the answers for copyright. I don’t think my problem is primarily with terms. I’m probably closer to thinking perhaps the system should acknowledge where we landed consuetudinarily. Just let people share all materials, acknowledge a right of the original author to be the sole profit holder in for-profit exploitation. That’s effectively how most of the Internet works anyway. Even then there’s obviously tons of stuff we’d have to sort out. What happens with ownership transfer? What about terms? What about derivative work? Components of larger works? I don’t know.
We’re talking about reworking some of the biggest markets and industries on the planet from the ground up. It’s not a shower thought, it’s something a whole bunch of very smart people with different backgrounds should and would have to get together for years to put together. Probably on a global scale.
It’s an absurd question to have a locked down opinion about. The gap between beign able to tell “yeah, duh, something’s not working” and being able to fix it is enormous here. Figuring out that much is probably as far as my trip is gonna take me at this point. And I know even less about patent law.
