Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that the goal of copyright is to incentivize innovation (specifically of art and culture) and to provide innovators a way recoup (and profit) off of innovation they've made public. I view it as similar to how patents work in that it's an incentive for people to publicize and share their works more broadly.

> Are you not a fan of copyright in its current scope / implementation? Because it sounds like you do agree with its goal.

I have a differing understanding of the goal of copyright based off of what you've said, but I think our understandings are similar in that the copyright holder benefits from copyright/patents of their works.

I dislike the ways our current implementations of copyright are abused. I think the concept of fair use makes copyright as it is today workable. I also think our current copyright laws (at least in the US) have a lot of failure modes that subvert what I believe the purpose of copyright should be: to advance art and culture with legal and economic incentive.
