I think this could have lots of side affects (even though i agree that copyrights have some negative aspects to them). One big issue is that when things aren't bound by copyright, the originals can be adulterated and you won't know: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/19/technology/amazon-orwell-1984.html https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/19/technology/amazon-orwell-... > The New York Times reports that in some countries where "1984" is in the public domain opportunists are printing cheap versions of the novel and listing them on Amazon, avoiding paying royalties owed to Orwell's estate in the US. > The New York Times found 11 of the 12 fake Orwell books it ordered were dispatched from an Amazon warehouse and were labelled "new." The books cost as little as $3. This seems like an obvious net-negative for society.
