I’m done with copyrights. I know, artists need to be compensated for their works yadda yadda yadda, but that’s not even what it’s about anymore. For one thing, they last like 120 years. That’s unfairly long, by then the content creator will most definitely be dead for a long time. Whatever happened to public domain?

As we move into the digital age copyrights will inevitably die. With faster internet connections and bigger hard drives it’s only going to get easier to share information. Total sharing of information is the way of the future and copyrights are holding us back. It’s time that humanity starts focusing on greater objectives than writing a hit song and making a lot of money. The free flow of information is beneficial to all and it’s going to happen not matter how much copyright holders bitch and moan.

Will this new era usher in a change of the status quo? Of course it will, but that’s not a bad thing. Money is a meaningless symbol that confuses the fuck out of people. It puts artificial value on things. It misdirects people away from their true value. The owning of information is an antiquated idea, we should have left it in the 20th century where it belongs. This in the century of free information, of expanding horizons. Technology and the human desire to not pay for things will force it upon us weather we like it or not.
