The right to intellectual property should be inversely proportional to the intrusiveness required to equally enforce it and proportional to its potential impact on public safety.

Digital copyrights are practically unenforceable against non-commercial entities except to make occasional examples with prosecutions, which is not equal enforcement, without massive general invasion of privacy. Therefore digital copyright laws are almost violations of natural freedom per se.
