Have an Insightful vote. Now it actually makes sense. he was following EU law because he was unable to read Norwegian law because he had to order the site taken down.
While I would support your suggestion, I think a good compromise with the maximists should be:
1: You must register for your 7 year copyright within 30 days of creation. (charge nominal fee)
2: After 7 years you can renew for an additional 7 years.(charge 2X current US government published poverty level for a family of 4) That way only those making money with their copyright can afford to renew.
3: Copyright ends with death.
4: Copyright is not transferable. (owner is assigned at registration)
5: Software is not copyright-able under any circumstance.
Not necessarily applicable to this one, but my neighbor has one where he uses a headset to see what the drone sees. Using a handheld controller without looking is arguably much easier than a touch screen interface.
