“you want me to not have copyright on my own work? you want a big megacorp to just be able to take my work and make money on it, or making it so nobody will ever see it, leaving me entirely out of the loop, if they desire?”

the current copyright system:

#idk why people immediately decide that if they didn’t have ‘copyright’ they wouldn’t be able to sell thier own books.#this is an half baked idea but i think a system where you had to disclose who the author/orginator of anything sold was #and weather or not buying the thing from this vendor would give them money would be an idea.#i also think people usually want people to experience their work more than they want to be purely paid for it. but without pay you cannot #afford creating more things in the current economic system.#so now we have staunch copyright defenders who allow amazons fucked up business practices to profit of them
