TCHB-018 The Secret Chronicles of a Certain Man 04

It's been quite some time since I started selling this old man's videos. As you get older, time seems to pass faster. A day goes by in an instant, and a week feels like just two or three days. This is how we age and die in the blink of an eye. Will I be satisfied right before dying? Will I feel like I've lived my life to the fullest? Will I regret things left undone, or will I regret things done? Or will I feel hopeless despair that it's too late? In that sense, maybe by helping this old man, I'm doing something. If someone says I'm an accomplice to a crime, then yes, but I also want to do something for society. Just as I was thinking this, the old man contacted me. He said there are people imitating his crimes and selling videos. In other words, copycats. The old man is extremely angry, even furious. Anger from outside the base is truly frightening. But after hearing the details, it turns out he's saying, 'They imitated me without permission and didn't pay royalties.' In other words, the issue is money. The old man doesn't have any aesthetic sense of creation; he just treats this as a business. Just like those who copy him. When the old man said he would sue for copyright infringement, I told him: First of all, does this kind of (trashy) porn video have copyright? It's because there is no copyright that they can copy or be copied without a care. Olympic logos, unimportant posters, and such—if someone copies or traces them, it causes a big social uproar, but who would make a fuss over copying a porn video? This means there really is no copyright. Both creators and viewers think there's no copyright. That's why illegal downloads and pirate DVDs circulate on the net. Those who say they want to eradicate piracy easily copy others' plans, so how can customers possibly be willing to give them money? So saying copyright infringement is useless. Even though I told the old man this, he doesn't seem to accept it very well. There are people who don't copy, of course there are, but because of a few people's actions, the entire industry's image gets affected—this kind of thing happens all the time, right? The world is just like that. Still, the old man's anger is understandable. And after thinking for some time, I felt maybe what I could leave behind before dying might be this. I thought about suing those who imitate the old man for copyright infringement. To prevent more victims of such heinous crimes. To raise the issue of whether porn videos have copyright. Maybe I can do a little good for society. What do you all think?
