This is one of annoying topics
Copyrights are made up and have no basis in reality

Theft cannot be committed unless:
1. Thief rids the owner of the thing
2. Thief acquires of the thing
If one is not true than theft is not true as copying does not rid anyone from anything. Copying is good for the author because someone else back it up free of charge.

The fact that authors get angry at their work being copied freely is because they are monopolistic autocrats that want to exclusively control the market without a merit, all who interfere with the market shall be fed lead at a high velocity.

They will assault the market, there is nothing more sacred than the market which is the purest reflection of liberty and needs of humans from which everything grows and without which nothing can grow*. Items on the market are human labour stored as physical items, currency is the standardised quantification of labour. If I do labour by copying and pasting information (like copyrighted material) and offering a service of copying and pasting it to client's drive cheaper than the original author then the market shall judge and decide who is a better source. No theft has been committed, no crime involved, no liberty violated, therefore fine.

If the author wants to charge exclusively then they should make it unfeasably hard like key-activation, or like money is hard to scan and reprint. Another solution is to never publish, or publish to people who of their own volition respect "copyrights" where it is safe, not to general public. Information is like genie - once you let it out - it won't go back to the jar! No author should be surprised that once they print a book - people do reprints and scans and quote it. For this reason I say no liberty violated, because writing/drawing and publishing is a choice.

*Market as a term for assigning value and fulfilling needs in general. External markets like shops, malls, global trade that consist of many humans regulate their needs on their respective level on an interpersonal level. There is something I call internal market; where you assign your priorities based on speculative profits! You for example assign value of your limited and time pick particular tasks among many possible to do based on their speculative value (fapping instead of having a job)!>>153713
