The current state of Copyright law explained

What I learned watching this video:

  1. Copyright law was originally intended to help spur on the creation of new creative works.
  2. Copyright law was originally supposed to only last 28 years after the work’s creation.
  3. Copyright law has since changed so significantly that it no longer actually helps create new works. You can now get sued for building upon copyrighted work because copyrighted work now can last a gajillion years.

How do we fix this?
