This is why we ban advertising to children and copyright should expire after 30 years, there's nothing but rent-seeking going on and taking advantage of nostalgia. This isn't encouraging creative works which is why we as a country give the monopoly to artists in the first place. People should have the right to remix the culture they grew up with.
- LocalH 1y agoSome people believe copyright should be perpetual. Those people are wrong, but we must still fight against that idea. I blame the widespread adoption of digital communications. What's the saying? A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth can pull its pants up? We should have kept the internet for nerds only. The day we introduced e-commerce to the internet, we killed it. Eternal September indeed.
