@pluralistic Honestly I really just want copyright to be bound to the humans who actually created a work, and ownership to be non-transferable.
So if you write a book, you own it, and can extend permissions for use to others as you see fit, but they can never "own" it, you retain the capacity to retract those rights, extend them to others, etc. for the duration it's protected. (With death of the author(s) as a hard-limit on duration.)
