The notion of anti-copyright combines a group of ideas and ideologies that advocate changing the current copyright law.
It often focuses on the negative philosophical, economic, or social consequences of copyright, and that it has never been a benefit to society, but instead serves to enrich a few at the expense of creativity.
The members of this movement are in favor of either a significant overhaul or repeal of current copyright law.
Michele Boldrin and David K. Levine, economists at Washington University in St. Louis, have suggested that copyrights and patents are a net loss for the economy because of the way they reduce competition in the free market.
Every country in the world has copyright laws and private information ownership has not been repealed anywhere officially.
