Copyright isn’t supposed to promote anything, copyright is supposed to grant infinite money out of a once made job(by a specialist who was paid also only once) to a capitalist.
Replying to @username_1@discuss.tchncs.de
Limited copyright encourages sharing. This is why patents are good. The problem occurs when the lifespan of the protection is too favourable to a non creator owner.
Protections held as an asset by a corporation do little to encourage innovation.
