      They're not the same and Arthur knows it. He's being dishonest because the largest beneficiary of IP law as is are corporations. And trying to cover it up because maybe a few authors are lucky to own their works is just disgusting.

      In terms of writing books, almost all authors do in fact retain primary copyright over their work

      This depends on the contract they sign, but it is the norm in the industry, yeah.

      Hell, by default authors retain copyright over their work.

      But they're also transferable which is a huge mistake. No firm should own copyright as is. This is also important because as they were created originally they came from letters of sanction/patent of nobility or the crown.

      Making copyright or a subset of copyright non-transferable ("moral rights") is already the law in many European countries and is generally seen as an expansion of IP law and not a contraction of it

      Yeah - I mean, it reduces the creator's rights to their work, and also prevents anyone else from being able to ever gain those rights even with the permission of the creators.

      I mean, ultimately, that is just the nature of property - almost the definition of it, really - so if you're against private property, you won't like it.

      Yeah, I mean, it's a mixed bag, especially when creators become disproportionately wealthy and powerful (which is a much bigger problem than just the problem of IP in entertainment)

      If America had droits d'auteur then it would've been straight up illegal for Mojang to ever remove Notch's "created by" credit from Minecraft no matter how much of a Nazi he became And that sucks But I don't think we should base all our systems just on spiting Notch

          Yeah - and to some extent, the status of things like fanworks is probably not a particularly significant issue in the development of IP law. It matters, but it's not where the rubber hits the road.
