sorry big corpos but you do not deserve a payment equal to the opportunity cost of not being a piece of shit just because someone did the same thing as you in a better way. lost sales from having an inferior product is not the same as having money stolen from your bank account. (i'm actually not sorry get fucked)

anyway copyright law is really just a way for large corporations to bully smaller entities into submission. until it is fundamentally rewritten to prevent that, or disbanded entirely, we are stuck with the reality of large corporations and their bullshit
