so you would support the same penalty for false complaints of infringement

make 3 false 3 strikes complaints (either fair use or mistakenly licienced) and all your copyright are forever null and void.

Everything you ever produced is public domain from that point on

The right to bare arms is in the US constitution as is the right to vote, yet if you commit a felony both of those are stripped from you.
you might want to read your constitution then because both those rights are conditionally provided

try getting a polling booth to county a non US /NON registered voter vote counted

try getting someone 6 year olds vote counted.

the right of free speech is an absolute so great that UN human right treat defines it as a basic human right

there is a huge difference between rights granted by a country to it citizens CONDITIONALLY and those rights defined to basic rights every person should have unconditionally.

From my point of view having internet access is not a basic human right, it is a privilege.
obviously there no way you can claim the copyright monopoly is a basic human right either.
