> The creator of a work has a right to determine who they distribute it too. They might have a moral right, or even a legal right. But in the age of the internet, they have no practical right, since you can't in practice stop copying. Anyone who produces an informational work today knows that if it gets popular it will be copied on the internet without their permission. If they don't like that, they are free not to create the work in the first place. But since they know what will happen (or would know, if they had any intelligence at all), it seems silly of them to complain when it does.
