RE: I Disagree With Trump On Copyright Enforcement

I actually agree with you totally.

There's a huge problem with artists that I find to be really tiresome.

People try to use shame and such but it's really ineffectual. And most of the time, people don't have money to extract value via lawyers, and unless it's a sort of blatant case, with a fat target to harvest, then the pro-bono artist collective legislative people don't seem to be that useful.

I think what ought to be done as well is to use the information provided by the copywrite thief as instructional.

If I'm an artist, and someone makes an interesting game out of my work, and starts selling it without my permission and succeeds, then I ought to wield the shaming and social outrage to promote a crowdfunding campaign to replicate the business model that the thief used -- if at all possible, and then just privatize the artwork that made their work possible, and steal the audience they have aggregated for their project.

Sort of like saying "Thanks for letting me know of a market niche that I had previously missed!" -- and then capitalizing on it.
