Creativity doesn't come from copyright.

With the increase in the cost of living comes less opportunity to create.
Copyright provides a financial incentive for creativity.
I continue to be surprised by those who honestly believe that "removing anonymity from the internet" will somehow conjure up Big Brother in our homes, eradicate free speech, and spell the end of the world as we know it. The things you're concerned about have been here, and addressed, for years. Decades. Centuries.
Time to stop being afraid, accept that some things are a necessary evil (since unregulated people are even more evil than that), and move on.
