The world of cyberspace exists only in computer memory, but its outreach is far. It has a life. Connecting with new people, reading, researching, listening to music, uploading data, watching videos accessing public documents, buying tickets, purchase and sell things, sending mail, downloading files are just the common known activities that a normal person would do on the internet every day. The future of copyright is unpredictable and it is obvious that our present day actions would affect it in several ways which calls for more caution and precision. Copyright is a very specific bundle of rights designed to foster creativity for the public interest, rather than granting to its holders exclusive control of their works.
