Photographers can assert their copyright, and get America and the EU,
but lose out on, say, Somalia (where copyright, and any sort of
government, don't exist). That there are limitations doesn't mean you
have the right to remove my rights from where it does apply, and,
through your copyfraud, encourage UK companies to violate my
copyright.
Argument by repeated assertion is not in fact valid. You have done
hard work on these things, but there's so far no evidence you have an
enforceable copyright, and a pile of evidence against. Furthermore, as
has been pointed out, you're asking Commons to knowingly make claims
about enforceability of said nonexistent copyright that are false.
You can post a hundred times that black is white, but it still isn't.
(Actually, your persuasive powers pegged at zero when you tried to
claim that not agreeing with your spurious claims of ownership on a
mailing list would lead to arrest. Not that I expect you to understand
this in any way at all.)
