I am troubled by the fact that you consider the entirety of America to be copyright infringers when the study only indicated that 46% (plus/minus 2%) of americans actually did so. That leaves 53% of non-copyright infringers who think agree with the copyright infringers (assuming all copyright infringers agree that fines should be under $100).
Your statement also brings up the question of whether something that an entire population (according to you) is doing should even be illegal.
- sp332 15y agoCopyright laws are so extreme I don't see how you can avoid breaking them. Singing a popular song in a crowded place? You owe performance royalties to the songwriter. Use a song as a soundtrack to a Youtube video? You'll be lucky if they just take your video down, that's commercial-scale infringement! Maybe huge fines, or thousands of dollars in settlements.
