-There always were and always will be people exploiting loopholes in laws and regulations.  Like Bitcoiners managing to circumvent AML and taxation for a while.  That's why teh law is in constant flux, constantly updated by your betters to better serve you, criminal scum.  
-Duration can not be extended indefinitely.  The ability to extend patents/copyrights is also in flux to best serve you, earthling.
-We are neither innocent nor corrupt.  We is [were/are/will be].

Stop thinking.  It gives your flesh a sour aftertaste.
