One: thirty-year copyright, no exceptions. Culture belongs to its audience.

Two: noncommercial use is not copyright infringement. Copyright is only a monetary incentive for new works. There is no “unpublish.” Once it’s ours, you are entitled to any money involved, for a time. Take it or fuck off.

Not that I disagree with the 30 year proposal, but imagine if Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, and literally everything else pre-1994 was just all of a sudden public domain.

A copyrighted work going into public domain means anyone can make copies and derivative stuff from that work, it does not mean that the public in general owns the “Star Wars” trademark. Disney would still be the only one able to make abysmally souless Star Wars sequels and flood the market with low quality Star Wars “content”.
