it definitely is, tho.
of course they could steal your code, but you could steal theirs. you could steal their software. you could steal their paywalled articles. you could steal all those things that are affected by artificial scarcity. They have much more to loose if copyright gets abolished.
In an ideal world, I'd make copyright to be 5 years for individuals and abolished for corporations. But the world is far from ideal and individuals have much to win if copyright gets abolished as a whole.
