  Well yeah, it is currently. But not if the work becomes PD when you die, as OP is suggesting.

  So you’re an author and the only thing between a billion dollar studio and a royalty-free production of your work (that you have no creative input into) is your own death. And you’d feel fine and safe with that because “murder is illegal”?

  It’s hard to get away unnoticed with producing a work that infringes copyright, since they tend to have to be released to the public, and from a known source. Getting away with murder is a cinch in comparison.

  If it was the day after they died, mightn’t that have an unintended consequence of making it more likely that copyright holders would start “falling out of windows” just when it’s convenient for producers and AI crooks to snaffle up their content, royalty-free?

  while I understand things at a basic level … including Italian, right? Otherwise it could be a brief chat.

  Not really in public, but speakerphone is sometimes useful to be able to look something up on your phone in the middle of a call, e.g. checking your calendar when booking an appointment. And if someone called you then you’re less in control of whether it’s in public or not.

  You’re expecting there to be more generations in the future?
