With respect, no. We need to persuade our legislators to change copyright law so this doesn't happen.
Do we? Where does the law actually stand on things like this? My understanding is that it is still unclear. A test-case in court might be useful, even if it does go against us. Once the current law is clarified, we can campaign for a change in the law (or not, if it isn't needed).
I wouldn't be so quick to resolve things in law before we need to, while we can still slant the situation on the ground.
