Hey Scott. I can't say that I've been scorned personally by "copyright cops". I first began researching copyright during the Napster heyday. I was tired of being labeled a thief when I was convinced that there was nothing (legally or morally) wrong with downloading free music. My first discovery was that I was wrong about the legal part. My next discovery was that everything I thought I knew about copyright was wrong. I gradually learned about the extreme imbalances that exist in the current system. Lawyers are the ones that control creativity now. Everything about that seems wrong to me.

Everyone has been "scorned" by current copyright law. Most people just don't know enough to be outraged.
