I&#x27;m very much against modern IP&#x2F;Copyright.<p>But calling that barbaric is absurd hyperbole. It casts people wanting copyright reform as fringe extremists. When when I explain how much copyrights actually cover, for how long, and the extreme penalties for violations most people can&#x27;t believe it (many don&#x27;t, it&#x27;s too absurd and conflicts with their property and profits world view. similar to how you can&#x27;t convince a climate denier with facts). But, if they do, they realize that MPAA, RIAA, et al are the fringe extremists.
