1. Should copyright exist?
1. No because I do not find any of the arguments I have read regarding the use of violence against someone merely for speech to be compelling and therefore it would violate the Non-Aggression Axiom but I remain minded to superior arguments. Additionally, copyright was invented as a tool for the State to suppress the free flow of ideas, is still being used as a tool to suppress ideas like with the raid on Kim Dotcom and is all done under color of law that is built on a very weak intellectual foundation for moral justification.
Consequently, I am against the use of violence to impede or prevent the spread of the Bitcoin protocol because it is speech.

huh? You went to law school and you don't understand the purpose of copyrights and intellectual property?
"copyright was invented as a tool for the State to suppress the free flow of ideas"
Maybe the law has been taken too far but it was put into place at the request of artists to protect their work. The rest of your lunatic rant in unintelligible to normal people.

Copyright law has its roots in censorship. Failure to realize this means being blind to the potential for abuse.

Well, don't let the Winklevoss twins know you think protecting intellectual property is a bad thing. I bet they'd like to censor Mark Zuckerberg with a 2x4 plank across the head. lol
