Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Without printing technology there would be no need for copyright. Anglo-American copyright has its roots in early booksellers' practices that in 1710 re incorporated into the Statute of Anne. Several decades later in 1735 the provisions of this statute re copied in a new piece of legislation for the protection of engravings. Hover, “Hogarth's Act” protected only those engravings that involved original designs and thus, implicitly, made a distinction beten artists and mere craftsmen. Soon, hover, Parliament was persuaded to extend protection to all engravings. The history of Hogarth's Act foreshadod the logic whereby a century later protection was extended first to special and then to ordinary photographs. Together these instances of copyright extension raise the question of to what degree similar patterns are at work in the continuing expansion of copyright today.
