The more media mergers we see, the more copyright is doing the opposite of its intended purpose: instead of encouraging creativity, it’s discouraging it. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/copyright-should-not-enable-monopoly

There’s a crisis of creativity in mainstream American culture. We have fewer and fewer studios and record labels and fewer and fewer platforms online that serve independent artists and creators.

@eff The intended purpose of copyright was never creativity, but rent extraction.

Now you're surprised that it performs exactly as designed and helps to maximize rent extraction via monopolization.
