@LeslieBurns@esq.social @susankayequinn@wandering.shop My art is not a small business nor any other commercial endeavor. It's silly to force all human activity through the consumerist commodification grinder.
Neither should Sam Altman or Elon Musk or anyone else be able to monetize my work without dickering first with me.
@LeslieBurns@esq.social @susankayequinn@wandering.shop No, counselor, it's not the same thing at all. Promoting useful arts and sciences is important enough to be enshrined in the Constitution itself. Not an amendment. Not a statute. The actual effing Constitution. What does the Constitution say about driving?
They are not at all the same. The social value of promoting creation and encouraging creators is most unreasonably devalued by equating it with the purely discretionary privilege of driving.
@LeslieBurns@esq.social This I do not so much disagree with. The lie of automatic copyright should be put to bed. If you want protection register. It's the only way to get your hands on any value for the perpetual copyright that ostensibly is yours as a creator. And if we don't educate people about how it should be, how will they ever become motivated to act to make it as it should be?
