Anyone who knows anything about copyright law laughs their arses off, of course (and here's a primer for anyone who needs it[2]).
But this *is* dangerous. A lot of people have no clue, copyright is byzantine in its complexity, and it just takes a few ill-informed judges to make this into a thing. And coinbros will push their bullshit, whether they know they're wrong or not.
@paul it is exactly this. Somebody looked at the facts, started having second thoughts, and then promptly decided: "no! it's the world that is wrong!"
But still, this is dangerous if allowed to spread. In the long run it *will* normalize "NFT-as-ownership" bullshit, even though it makes no legal nor technical sense what-so-ever.
@rysiek oh absolutely agree. Didn't mean to derail. If there is one thing that has become painfully apparent in the past few years, it's that stupid spreads.

Better to nip this one in the bud.
