Copyright
Copyright is the name commonly given to the monster that steals your hopes and dreams of entertaining people. In reality, copyright itself is a good thing, but companies commonly abuse it for their evil purposes.
History
(1709) The British Statute of Anne was the first act to directly protect the rights of authors. Under US copyright law, the justification appears in Article I, Section 8 Clause 8 of the Constitution, known as the Copyright Clause. It empowers the United States Congress "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries."
It has claimed many a pooper's life, and will soon take yours!
