My first reaction when people want to take their ball and go home OR charge unreasonable prices for the 'honor' of playing with their ball is to thank them for their time and then let them go / decline to pay or play with their ball.
So there's Paris Syndrome. Which is a massive sense of dissapointment when going on vacation to Paris. Mostly experienced by Japanese people because their culture really hypes up the Paris experience (or so I hear).
I cant help but think that it's worth it for some hobbyists to create a bunch of free 3d models of famous buildings that are copyrighted. Obviously not exactly the same (you need to avoid a copyright claim), however the difference should be an attempt to make the building feel grander and better.
Eiffel tower at night (mentioned in other places in this thread) is apparently also copyrighted. So the goal there would be to create an Eiffel tower at night that blows the experience of the real Eiffel tower out of the water.
The ultimate goal is to enhance Paris Syndrome as much as possible. When people get to the copyrighted place in real life, we want them to feel like it was overly hyped up and definitely not worth the trip. "Hey Tim how was your trip?" "You know, I just feel it was more impressive in the video game."
If people want to restrict their whatever from public consumption, then I'm more than happy to find a way to direct the public to something more worth their time.

The Mona Lisa is available all over the internet, yet people still flock to see it in person practically every day. Even a perfect replica of it isn’t worth the millions the authentic is worth. I don’t know the name of it, but people tend to prefer the “real thing” even if they can “experience” it elsewhere. My point is: even if a perfect 1:1 scale replica of the Eiffel Tower existed, people would still flock to see the “authentic” one to “appreciate” it.
