Unfortunately, almost the entire world signed on to the Berne Convention [0], and it's basically impossible to change it anymore. It predates the internet too, so it has silly things like "minimum copyright term must be 50 years after the death of the author" and makes no allowances for the copyright of technological content. The entire world has already handcuffed itself to the bad decision of having incredibly restrictive copyright laws, so we already are in a pretty bad spot there.
