Since this is driven by the entertainment industry, a solution would be to just stop consuming entertainment. They've been fucking with copyright long enough trying to get their old business models to stop failing, why are we still giving them money?

People need to realize this - every cent you give to the copyright industry will be used against you.

Everything is copyrighted by default?

But not all copyright holders lobby for such laws.

Those copyright holders who don't lobby for this often represent 1% of 1% of content, as is the case in music, for example.

I stopped buying music from any artists whose label is a member of RIAA or IFPI many years ago.

Which labels are not members? I wasn't aware there were any.

Small labels. All kinds of niche music is not affiliated with the big associations. Ketzer Records is one, for example. That's one from the metal subgenre (Black/Pagan, Death, Doom, Ambient). I assume all niches have their own small labels.
