I think that Copyright laws were made for artists and individuals to have their ideas as their own and get credit for the work they do. However, the laws are broad thatit has become unclear what copyright is exactly.
If there were no copyright laws, artists would create their work but perhaps not get all the credit they deserve for it. Which is not the best thing, however, it is not necessarily a bad thing either. People would be able to access whatever information they wanted, build off of someone else's work, and it would be sharing, not stealing. In Rip! Girl Talk explains how research in the medical field is patented and how these patents prevent other people from doing the research and possibly finding a cure for cancer or other diseases. So having no copyright can be find and even beneficial.
