Not even true. Anything you say is copyrighted. This comment is copyrighted. I have the legal ability to sue if this is reproduced without my permission. Publishers yes have an outsized voice, however the solution is not to abolish copyright but to make repercussions for publishers much more onerous. DMCA needs to be immediately abolished in its current form and instead replaced with a law that a) requires proof of ownership b) proof of identity c) provides comparatively heavy cost for fabrication (submit a false claim, be liable for 1-10k in damages, just for the claim). Further, repeating truth should not be criminalized. If both myself and another entity want to accurately submit the sky is blue, one of us should not be able to sue the other. So then a takedown becomes strictly a matter of enforceable copyright rather than the current complete nonsense that it is now.
