"One of the copyright world’s key weapons is a constant barrage of propaganda
about the alleged benefits of this intellectual monopoly, and of the supposed
horrors of its infringement.  This is typically conducted through massive
lobbying of politicians, funded using the copyright companies’ generous profits
that could have been distributed to the poorly paid creators that generate
them.  There are also the general awareness campaigns, like the famously
laughable “You wouldn’t steal a car” public service announcement and its
parodies.  But such is the lack of any sense of proportion or decency in the
copyright world, that it believes it also has the right to brainwash children
with its dogma.  TorrentFreak has spotted another such effort, this time over
in Denmark."
