Such a bloody drama queen!
You have no
basic right of copyright. It is a highly artificial, historically recent (and arguably historically aberrant), legally (not naturally) derived government grant of monopoly whose exact nature differs from country to country and does not even exist in a few of them.
But you go on crying for yourself, you poor maligned, abused, thieved but still shiningly brilliant prodigy of a writer!
Or, alternatively, stop writing in protest. I promise you, Steve, that I will personally make sure the world and human civilization survives the loss of your unparalleled literary jewels!
