Laws should have never protected anything that you have purchased for your own use.

That is quite different than someone making a profit selling something that someone else has created as the inventor or writer.

Leave it to lawyers to continuously create laws that churn confusion for their own monetary desires.

Until lawyers are outlawed, there will always be outlaws.

Alas, once they are outlawed, they'll just swell the outlaw ranks :-) .
