    The thing about modern copyright is that works are supposedly protected regardless of the copyright symbol. But how does that work in practice? Because if everything is copyrighted, including something as simple as a doodle, then nothing is.

      Care to explain? If I make something that inherently has copyright, then if you copy it I can take action.
