All "copyrighted" works belong to the public domain.
We're only giving them a time-limited lease to the stuff. If you leased land to someone for 75 years, and at the end of the lease term they started burying highly radioactive waste on the property to prevent you from taking it back for the next 330,000 years...
Well, you'd just refuse to lease it to people like that, wouldn't you?
We should demand that our government refuse to give those leases out if they do it. DRM or copyright, not both. DRM prevents the work from ever going back to the public domain.
Your arguments are ill-considered, in fact, you don't even prevent one. Just knee-jerk reactionary "nyuh uh!".
