The article above got me thinking about how to enforce copyright laws. It seems to be that it is exceedingly difficult to catch people pirating media including music, movies and tv shows on the internet. This is probably why it has increased, because citizens are becoming more proficient with technology. I can;t think of a way to actually monitor people pirating technology but i do think increasing the penalty if they are caught could help. This is yet another aspect to copyright that needs to be discussed.
Copyright is harder to monitor because the law has not adjusted to the technological innovations. It will always be hard to eliminate piracy until the law is changed in some way
Copyright is also harder to enforce because it’s impossible for a single corporation to monitor the activities of billions of people on individual computers across the world, just to make sure that a particular three notes isn’t copied. It would be impossible to do that.
The issue is that technology is so far ahead of the laws being written and the ways with which companies are utilizing the new technology. If companies would make their media easily accessible than that would really cut down on the amount of pirating
