Thank you for the clarification and expansion of the description of its transformation of the law. Copyright was a "right" - I wonder how many people even notice the spelling.

A handshake. A reward for creation, limited to guarantee quick addition of the creation to human progress.

Now through bribes and control of legislatures by money, it is applied as a weapon, with generations of control given to "rights purchasers" not content creators.

I only now read Georg Riekeles' excellent 2022 account of #BigTech's outrageous global #lobbying influence. While I don't agree with everything (e.g. his take on #liability and the #copyright debate), after 15 years in #EU #Brussels I'd say his long-read is frighteningly accurate.

Includes special mentions of @corporateeurope and other crucial civil society groups fighting back.
