Let's be clear on another thing.
Some form of copyright was in the US constitution.
This is what the US constitution says on the matter:
"To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for
limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their
respective Writings and Discoveries;"
I think current copyright law in fact curtails progress of Science
and Art, not promote the progress thereof.
Of course, I don't have enough money to buy laws I would like in Washington.
