So you define "fairness" as always following the rules as is. That's objectively false. Many historical examples.

  No, not really. I'd say it's more about the spirit than the letter of the law.

  It sounded more like defining fairness as having the rules apply equally to everyone in practice. Which is a pretty decent definition, IMHO.

    The reality is that small companies also have advantages in not following the law in its strictest sense than big ones in some areas mainly because no one cares about them. Ignoring that dimension, here's another possibility: it is very possible that the utilization of AI and the licensing structure that Schmidt predicts here will increase the total licensing revenue that copyright holder pockets in aggregate despite their resistance today. It could be a win-win in the end. Wouldn't that be more than fair?
