Copyright lobbyists, especially those that serve the interests of Hollywood, are one of the worst things to happen to the world.

Originally, copyright was limited to a maximum of 28 years. If you created something, you had 28 years to get all you could out of it, because after that it became public domain

Movies like On The Waterfront and Seven Samurai, and even the first two books of The Lord of the Rings would be in the public domain now, free for anyone to use and enjoy and remix and learn from if lobbyists from companies like Disney hadn’t argued for copyright laws to be changed in 1976 to better serve their money hungry interests.

Duke University compiled a list of all of the films that could have entered the public domain this year were it not for these Jew-serving lobbyists from Hollywood.

If we were still under the copyright laws that existed until 1978 . . . Up to 85% of all copyrighted works from 1983 could have been able to enter the public domain on January 1, 2012.

But, nope, the Copyright Jews want us to wait until fucking 2051 for anything to enter the PUBLIC DOMAIN at all.

Lobbyists and their Jew masters are truly a blight upon the world.
