The Future of Copyright

My entry to this contest:

http://www.indiegogo.com/Future-of-Copyright

I predict the future of copyright will look a lot like today's war on
drugs: the only people supporting it will be people either profiting
from it or unaffected by it -- the people it purports to protect (not
to mention the people actually targeted) will have apathetic tolerance
for it, to futile resistance against it. Copyright will render the
entire content industry a wasteland of legal risk and weak offerings,
where all the top innovation and product development happens by
criminals. Piracy will become increasingly widespread and socially
acceptable, and future generations will just accept the absurd status
quo as "something previous generations did that we've just got to deal
with; thanks grandpa for fucking it up for everyone."
