Got it, so you have a general aversion to copyright, the concept of intellectual property, and to an extent, the funding of knowledge work I'm assuming?
You didn't carve out any exceptions, hence my assumption.
- breck 4y agoI have no aversion to `the funding of knowledge work`. (c)opywrong law is actually a huge tax on doing knowledge work for everyone except the 1%.
- eganist 4y agoCan you help me understand how "[copyright] law is actually a huge tax on doing knowledge work for everyone except the 1%?"
- breck 4y agoRevenue gained from (c)opywrong law - minus sum of [all fees], [royalties], [license overhead], [additional red tape someone has to jump through to use information] - minus sum of the same for all government agencies that one pays taxes to.
- eganist 4y ago> Revenue gained from [copyright] law - minus sum of [all fees], [royalties], [license overhead], [additional red tape someone has to jump through to use information] - minus sum of the same for all government agencies that one pays taxes to. I'm not sure this answers the question. Who's revenue is this, and which of the elements you described is "a tax"?
