The dispute over protected works is not without larger implications. Were Baker and his ilk to carry the day, the critics would threaten the very foundation on which the law of intellectual property--indeed all property--rests. They advocate a de facto appropriation of all copyrights in the name of the "public interest." That logic leads inevitably to the socialization of copyright, with creators subject to the tyranny of the majority. Such a regime would effectively destroy any expectation of copyright protection in the work of any public figure. Perversely, the more important a work, the less copyright protection it would deserve.
That many critics are waging their campaign in the name of the First Amendment only compounds their error. In so doing, they trivialize the amendment, transforming it into a burglar's tool wielded by the media. Their theory amounts to opportunism in the name of the "public interest" or the "right to know." All property derives its value from the power to exclude others. The right to free speech does not include the right to take the speech of others for free. Reasonable people may disagree about the scope of copyright protection. But no one can deny that, under current law, a creator?s property is protected. Now I certainly wish I wrote that but is is a paraphrase of a James Swanson article from January 20, 2002 in support of MLK's family enforcing their property rights. |

Gideon makes some good points. This whole concept of consumers being "licensed" content is new and only applies to a small portion of the types of products we "buy", and it isn't entirely clear why. To pick on the earlier examples, you absolutely can take a car and do what you want with it, and not be violating any sort of licensing or copyright, even if you are violating other laws. Ford will have no legal standing to prosecute or persecute you if you drive through someone's house. Nor will Dell if you buy their laptop and use it to commit treason.
Besides that, copyright terms don't correlate with reality. Why should Paul Markham (just to pick on someone we all know) have the rest of his years plus 70 of exclusive copyright assignment on a photo of a girl, but James Ferguson (the guy who invented and patented LCD technology in the early 1970s) lost his exclusivity in the early 1990s? Is it because Paul's contribution is greater to the world than James'? Is it because Paul spent more time creating his work than James did? Maybe Paul spent longer in school to learn his trade? No, with all due respect to Paul, none of those things are true.. Yet Paul can limit the freedom of his consumers, his children will be able to continue to limit those freedoms, and possibly his grandchildren after that. |

Again, tone down the personal attack and focus on what you're actually trying to say.
Unfortunately, copyright isn't about "you can't take other peoples shit and do whatever you want with it". Copyright is about reproduction and distribution. You don't actually get to control every aspect of what someone can do with something they legally purchased, |

So you did sell them a licence The whole point is that copyright law allows you to sell them right to do thing on a piece by piece basis INSTEAD of the normal property rights transfer that exists for everything else.

That's where the copyright/licensing laws come in. GG might think there is a better way and personally there has to be. A way that makes the freeloaders pay for the goods they share off the becks of others who pay for them. Tax Mega Upload type sites, Tubes, etc. Make advertisers pay the cost of creating the the creations on the sites they promote from, much like TV is run today. Giving everyone a "Credit" is half the measure, where does the money for the credit come from? Ultimately someone has to repay the investments of the companies risking their money.

Why is gideongallery posting here? I have him on "ignore" so I have no idea what kind of stuff he is saying. But he isn't even IN this business. He has never created ANYTHING himself. And he has never posted even ONE post that wasn't just being a shill for piracy.
What drives a guy to post on a forum that he isn't really a part of and is of no benefit? He must be a very lonely and pathetic small man. |

I've been thinking about GG's idea of "tax credits" and realise what a genius idea it is. Instead of creative works which need copyright to protect them which in today's age of the Internet is so hard to do. Having Government tax credit system is so much better and fairer.
Let's say the total World Wide industry of creating copyrighted material is $100 billion. Instead of selling the goods and fighting piracy it's all free online for anyone who wants to download it and any copies that are shared offline fall under the same category. Governments would issue tax credits that the creators could cash in with their countries Government via the tax system. Fucking genius and has obvious advantages over the present system which as GG points out, is antiquated and out dated. Can't see any flaws in this idea at all. ![]() |

So I was thinking this through some more and it has some obvious benefits for everyone.
The Governments will love it. They can issue a license to approved sites, unlicensed sites will fall outside the system. Giving Governments control of huge swathes of the Internet. The license will not cover the whole tax credit system, so taxes will be raised and paid by everyone whether they use the credits or not. Best not a sales tax as this impacts the poor, far better is a rise in income tax. Then Microsoft, Universal Studios, Nintendo, Manwin, Sony, etc. No longer have to worry about piracy, they just go to the Government to redeem their credits. companies producing something the politicians decide is wrong, are screwed. No matter they can give it away on street corners as the Internet platforms won't touch it with a barge pole. Extra tax = more people sitting in Government offices shuffling paper so it mops up some unemployment. Ultimate control on large, for now free to do as they please, parts of the Internet have to be Government approved. So anyone they don't like is screwed. Anyone else besides me and GG think this is a brilliant idea? |

the kings(government) funded the creation of the work with money gotten from the public thru taxes. The church funded the creation of work, from the tax exempt donations of the petitioner. you just gave two examples on how it would work Crowd funding would be the method to accomplish this, and people who support the arts would be allowed to deduct those payments from their taxes. Patronage would be the domain of the masses instead of the uber rich. instead of bill gates spending 10 million dollars to by a work of art and donating it to a museum and getting a tax deduction a million regular people would donate donate 10 to fund the creation of a new movie/song and more projects like this would be funded http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...vie?ref=search waste like being forced to recreate the models would be eliminated and the over all cost of producing each new iteration would be geometrically reduced. |

Creative Commons is essentially a bullshit organization funded by Google that's working for the abolition of copyright so Google can have free use of shitloads of content with no license fees. It's a way for Google to make more money. If you believe any of that bullshit about public domain and crap, you're simply naive...or an idiot like GG.

gideongallery...just seeing your name and the "ignore" message instead of whatever stupid shit you are writing (because you have NO experience) makes me smile.
But seriously man...why are you here? All you ever post is pro-piracy postings. You've never even ONCE posted a business thread (because you are not in our business) or even just a fun humorous post. It's like you only come here to argue and fight. This kind of behavior sure makes it seem like you have serious mental issues. Your arguments sound ridiculous. Everything you say just screams out that you have no experience in owning anything or running a business. Just go back to the torrent forums and hang out with your own kind. You'll be much happier (if that's even possible for a masochist like you). You don't belong here. This is theoretically an INDUSTRY board. You are not in our industry. Matter of fact, best I can tell from reading your posts...you are not in ANY industry at all. Don't go away mad. Just go away. (copyright: Motley Crue) heh-heh |

so you have the iexact same problem. If that not an issue, changing the system to create competing model isn't going to hurt Remember the option exist to keep the old copyright system And the attempt to change the laws to deal with the "problem" of piracy always goes against the public interest.

You yourself pointed out those "investors" want to get paid back, they make creative changes to the content to maximize their investment.

3.5 million for a dead genre of games you seriously need to look at the number of successful projects on kickstarter there are a lot of people who are paying lots of money for stuff they want to see created. Quote:

If anyone takes a look at Dean Baker's past commentary, he's very pro-market (and anti-bailout), etc... and at least is offering some interesting ideas and thinking outside the box.

lol yep, but then it's an interesting topic and could've gone a different way if not for gideongallery being the messenger. Ah well.

When I said making anything free, I meant he wasn't suggesting making anything free at the expense of the market or the creator. Otherwise, he wouldn't be posting so much about how to compensate them more.

A few quotes emphasized from the article:
"Of course we need to pay creative workers, but we should find more efficient mechanisms, where a higher percentage of the cost borne by the public ends up in the workers' pockets." ... "However, we would clearly need much more funding if the flow of money from copyright protection were to be lost. " ... "We would also need new mechanisms to support the development of software." ... "Developing the best mechanisms for supporting creative work will take much thought and debate." Obviously, Dean Baker wasn't suggesting the same thing gideongallery usually does. Dean acknowledges some major important changes would need to happen, and wants creators to be fairly (moreso than now) compensated.

Exactly. But gideongallery is trying to twist things so that it does.
And again, the REAL question is WHY does gideongallery even post here? He brings absolutely nothing to the table. Just like he does in real life. He owns nothing, creates nothing, and spends his days reading torrent forums and drinking that kool-aid as a "true believer" (translation=Useless freeloading parasite of society with a masochistic streak that compels him to post on GFY) |

gideon, those are examples of the content creators making these choices. You are either consistently misunderstood here, or you are far too often actually condoning piracy regardless of the content creators choice.

This is just so sad:
Unread Today, 05:55 PM gideongallery This message is hidden because gideongallery is on your ignore list. gideongallery...please stop posting on GFY and get yourself some help. Ask your parents if they can get you some of that free Canadian health care and get you to a mental health clinic. There is something really, really wrong with a person who keeps posting over and over on a forum that he is not wanted on and never posts anything relevant to business (because he isn't in our business). I'm really worried for you. All message board shenanigans aside...you are probably a couple of steps away from putting a bullet in your own head in your current mental state. Please go get help before it's too late for you. ![]() |

dan bull made money by giving away his stuff using mega upload but because some other users used the exact same service to infringe rather then go after those individuals Taking the choice away from dan bull. Why do you believe pointing out how unfair that is condoning piracy. |
