Your "right to profit" only exists in so far that you can try to profit from it, but naturally that might fail if someone takes your idea and implements it cheaper.

Copyright is only a government-granted, temporary monopoly on that idea to incentivize you to live from creating them in the first place and to create more.

Once you have given your idea to someone else, where does your natural right come from to control what they do with it?
