Do you think that the basics of copyright law should be taught in schools? Why and why not?

No small creators would exist without copyright. It doesn't just serve large corporations. Tom Scott has an in-depth video on copyright as it relates to small Internet creators.

I agree, of course, that many large corporations profit obscenely from copyright. But copyrights are also the livelihood of many small time players: from social media content creators, to artists and writers, to software developers and scientists.

Knowing copyright laws can help you as an engineer, an artist and many other situations. Knowing this will equip you agains corporations.
