Zero art has been stolen.
You cannot steal a jpg.
And protecting copyright is supporting big corporations.
Apart from - you know, all the photographers, designers, authors and musicians out there.
You mean the ones who routinely come out saying how X corporation stole their work and they received nothing for it?
The ones where if you try to challenge the corporations hoarding human cultural works you’ll find yourself in a legal battle you can’t afford to enter.
The amount of times an artist “wins” in the system vs a corporation is laughable. It’s designed to protect you and I, like the rest of the legal system does (it doesn’t).

The difference is, even if it worked properly I would still not be in favour of denying people freedom to use cultural works.

Are you a professional at making shit up?
I'm an anarchist, I don't believe in companies existing at all.

Because the focus is on people, I don’t care if it benefits a company secondarily.

And you have the system that judges peoples worth by the number in their bank accounts and the amount of things they own to thank for that.
