Nothing !!!!People assume the statement "Copying is not theft" is akin to saying: "Copying is not wrong".
What they refuse to see or admit is that theft and copyright infringement are different things - the copyright-maximalist propaganda has done its job well.
It's all rather sad, really... that people have come to assume that copying is somehow as bad (or worse?) than stealing. It's almost incomprehensible that we've reached this point.
Exactly. It's similar to the propaganda of "draining the reward pool." That only happened once on the STEEM blockchain. They drained it so they could fill a much bigger pool.
Similar to how "copying is theft" gets their point across about how they disapprove of copying, "draining the reward pool" means they disapprove of how rewards are allocated. They want to use a means other than stake alone. They want some kind of influence cap instead of or in addition to the stake-based system we have.
duplicating not hurting the proprietor. The proposition (or my acknowledgment) that duplicating isn't harming is excessively of a cross. It couldn't be any more undeniable, you're basically looking from the perspective of the buyer, who sees the thing being copied as the thing had. The law is about the perspective of the substance makers, who see the advantage to disseminate the thing being duplicated as the thing had. Giving some individual a duplicate of something - say, a film - diminishes the probability that that individual will purchase that thing. It's not a straight affiliation - the beneficiary may never have gained that thing at any rate, or maybe receipt of the repeated work may really goad the beneficiary to go buy the first - yet it's most likely guaranteed to express that when all is said in done, beneficiaries of duplicates will be less arranged to make buys of firsts. Thusly, the advantage to diffuse is hurt, in light of the way that the social event of onlookers is diminished. Subsequently, from the perspective of the substance makers (the party whom copyright law was made to secure), mirroring does as a general rule square with hurt. The copiers are taking the advantage to distribution.Bias disclaimer: I fall more on the sensible utilize side of the question than the DRM side, yet I instigate that this contention is extremely frail, making it hard to use to upbraid existing copyrights.
Handing somebody a copy of something -- say, a movie -- decreases the likelihood that that person will buy that thing.
But so does renting. Content producers often initially fight emergent rental markets because they think it will adversely affect their bottom line. But when they allow it, they find a happy equilibrium instead of the dooms day they predict.
Copying is not theft. Stealing a thing leaves one less left Copying it makes one thing more; that's what copying's for. Copying is not theft. If I copy yours you have it too One for me and one for you That's what copies can do If I steal your bicycle you have to take the bus, but if I just copy it there's one for each of us! Making more of a thing, that is what we call "copying" Sharing ideas with everyone That's why copying is FUN!
I have this cd player that was made in the USA by escient, inside it has a hard drive, and you can burn your original cd, onto the hard drive, and play it without having to put the cd in it, in the UK this infringes on copyright, and you can be fined or imprisoned for it, yet they still sold this machine in the UK, it also has the capability to burn the songs onto another disc, so you can preserve the original in new condition, this is also against the law, figure that one out.
If that was the standard, content producers could sell box sets, at a much higher markup, knowing that people would always rip them before playing. They'd know that friends would rip other friend's CDs. And sometimes those friends would buy the media when they lose their entire albums due to damaged players, et c. It would be glorious.
It is glorious, I bought this one second hand, and it was full of Pink Floyd & roger waters albums, plus hundreds more, 180gb worth, I also moved from the UK to Poland & Poland has no such draconian laws as the UK, happy days here my friend. (edited) Wow, I earned more for 1 comment to you, than I have on any single post I have made to date, Thank you.
I am in a battle to know what is right and wrong as an rtist, I just came back from a serious illness and used borrowed 3 year old zines for an exersise and to help other artist. I got misundstood comment by a friend and shunned from payment . . . making me not want to do borrowed library works. My work is all CREATIVE COMMONS . . . it's something to think about what and how we belive. 100% upvote from me and I'm putting on dtube in hope more see it.

I see what you did there.
There are those who say that copying theft, Hua does not believe in the exchange of ideas

So if I read a nice story on the internet and I want to share it by copying it and past it on steemit am I allowed to do that?
If you cite your source, usually it’s allowed.
Ok cool thanks for the help
