Larry Lessig afirmă că legea sufocă creativitatea.

Larry Lessig, cel mai celebru avocat al Net-ului, menţionează pe John Philip Sousa, drepturile supreme de autor şi cartelul  ASCAP în cadrul argumentului său pentru a renaşte cultura creativă.

Digital technology has revived a participatory, 'read-write' culture where anyone can remix music, video, and ideas. Early 20th-century fears predicted that recording technology would silence everyday creativity, and today’s copyright laws risk making that prophecy come true. When every act of digital creation technically violates the law, entire generations grow up as accidental outlaws. A balanced approach is needed to protect both creativity and creators in the digital age.
