That's what it's been since the initial grant and that's what it is now. An author may feel that a specific work is theirs, theirs alone and they hold absolute control over it now and forever, but just because they feel that way, doesn't make it true.
I'm supporting what SHOULD be. In my opinion, the current laws are wrong; but then, this country has a history of enacting wrong laws.
