The EU isn't big on natural rights, though. They talk a good game, but once you get beyond the vaguest platitudes, the people in power at the moment are the ones who get to define what "rights" mean. As usual it comes down to whoever has the most lawyers, guns, and/or money.

The concept is problematic enough here in the US, where our founding documents assume that rights are granted by a deity who rarely bothers to put in an appearance when said rights are being violated. It's best to find more rational bases than "natural rights" for arguments like copyright reform, if at all possible.
