Removal of Copyright (only for non commertial use)

[DavidXanatos]

Reading "Removal of Copyright" (viewtopic.php?f=37&t=1234) and "Why I think a 10 year copyright term is too short" (viewtopic.php?f=37&t=1341)

I thought that the Pirates should handle the issue more diversified.

There should be a difference made between commercial use so one where the user creates money from the use of the object, and private use where the user is not acting in expected of a direct profit.

For commercial Copyright does not have to be removed though a limitation of its lifetime would be reasonable.

For Private / Non Commertial / Research and Scientific use how ever Copyright should be removed completely and without any replacement.

Current policy is that copyright applies only when the infringer receives money as a result of the infringement (i.e. copyright does not apply for non-commercial copying such as file-sharing).

I think we should be careful w.r.t. use for advertising or implied endorsement of a product.

But isnt ACS:Law & co suing filesharers?
For what than? Private P2P is non-commercial.
