Is this 'Art access' you refer to something you make also? Or are you only referring to 'Art' other people make? The distinction is critical.

- margalabargala 3y agoIt of course includes all of the art I make myself, which I make available for free to all under either permissive or copyleft licenses.
- IndySun 3y agoInteresting. Do you believe, your applaudable position, should be enforced on anyone doing anything, or just anyone creating 'art'? Seems odd to weaken a musicians chances of making a living (not majors, individuals - copyright laws are odious). The position implies a 'living' will not be permitted by means of creativity. Is that the intention?
- pessimizer 3y ago> The position implies a 'living' will not be permitted by means of creativity. You're begging the question, here. Also, you know that there exist people who distribute creative works for free, and make money by donations, sponsorships, patronage, and grants. Therefore you know that the statement as you have made it is false, and that you should be looking for a weaker one. edit: I don't know how somebody goes from "weaken the chances" to "not be permitted" in subsequent sentences, and in addition tries to derive "not be permitted" from "weaken the chances" through the weasel word "imply," and still feels like they're engaging in good faith argument. If you're confident, you don't need to make up a position for your opponent, and your position is not as weak as you're making it look.
- IndySun 3y agoI am not or have not or do not advocate 'one way or my way', at any point, anywhere in any post, but simply to remind people just be careful not to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
- account42 3y agoI do not believe people should be forced to share their art freely. I also don't believe people should be forced to not re-share art they have received, which is what copyright is. This should not be a thing the government wastes resources on. You are framing weakening copyright as some kind of act of violence onto the poor artists when copyright is the status where everyones rights get violated in order to help the few.
