I'm right there with you in thinking copyright lasts far too long but for the sake of argument what if someone said "I don't pay taxes because (x) is wrong with our tax system" or "I'm alright with forcing myself on a woman because what qualifies as rape is far too broad a definition" or even "I drive as fast as I want in school zones because I can see when a damn kid is crossing the road"? Sure, the law doesn't make sense but how does breaking it help the situation? Can't we find better ways to get the attention of those in power to make a change? I feel like these kinds of protests don't help. They just call people like you "bad apples" and write you off. There has to be a better way. I'm not faulting you for your position, just wondering if maybe there's something else we can do.
