> After all, infringement is a matter of permission
The obvious solution is to make it impossible to give certain kinds of permission, like how it's impossible to give up your 'moral rights' under German law, for example: If the government sees someone using something without being able to show they have paid for it and are operating under restrictions, they are committing piracy. If you gave it to them without enforcing those restrictions, you induced them to commit piracy, probably a more serious crime.
