Yup. If I write a book it wouldn't be right for a publisher to steal it and sell it as their own.
Current intellectual property laws are fucked, but I'm also tired of people who join the circlejerk of "all IP laws are bullshit and they all need scrapped"
Those are often the same people who say things like, "soon all of our books and movies will be made by AI, so artists will be obsolete" and mean it in a good way.
