The law belongs to the people who have after all paid for its creation and upkeep since such mechanisms of society where created, ascribing a publishing licence to anyone is whats wrong here, if we saw a move away from misusing copyrights as a transferable asset such ludicrous events would never come to pass as those who styled the wording of the law would be too many and most likely dead to state any claim. this is the same type of poor usage of the law that allows record companies to profit from an artists work without doing anything more than act as a bank manager, such legal trickery is flawed at a basic level in my view.
