We want to restore copyright to its origins, and make absolutely clear that it only regulates copying for commercial purposes. To share copies, or otherwise spread or make use of use somebody else’s copyrighted work, should never be prohibited if it is done non-commercially and without a profit motive. Peer-to-peer file sharing is an example of such an activity that should be legal.

So I buy a movie, rip it and share it (for no commercial purpose) over p2p network.
If this is legal, it means no-one can make money on the product, once it gone digital. Not a big deal you'd say? Well, apply that to stuff that is digital from the very beginning: software.

With "poor actors" only make like tens of millions (Hanks made 50.000.000$ on last Illuminati), they have quite a long way to death.
