There are many quite rational anarchists who would argue for that. Personally, I wouldn't advocate for throwing that switch in today's world, because we only have like 5% of the infrastructure needed to support a healthy anarchistic society. But if in the future we have a fairly complete complement of anarchistic technology and culture I could rationally argue that copyright would be superfluous, if not outright harmful in that world.
