[Foundation-l] Article: Public Domain Art in an Age of Easier Mechanical Reproducibility (Sage Ross)

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
I had a read of the first one. While it is nice that there is an
understanding that copyright has to do with authorship, the fact of the
matter is that it is not the author that benefits from copyright. This is
best understood in the way they define the types of copyright:
*commercial
*scholarly

In this way it is forgotten that there is research by people who are none of
the above. In this duopoly it is easy to give to companies what should not
be theirs in the first place.
Thanks,
     GerardM
