#SaveOurInternet 10: Cui prodest?

This Christmas may be the last one that a free Internet exists within the EU, to the detriment of many people in the creative professions. When I first went into blogging and publishing fanfiction online over five years ago, I thought this day would never come. There would be a requiem and a ban on parodies, on sharing images and stories that move us for free, on filk lyrics and fanfiction, and pirate translations of works outside the public domain... The Members of Parliament turn a deaf ear to all of us in the creative and the electronic world, and thus, next year... if we all don't come together and do something against this Article 13, everything we know and love will fall apart.
Now I know how Odin must have felt with the forebodings of Ragnarök. But who am I to be then... Odin or Enjolras? Feeling powerless against the rising tide, or not? Not only is my career as a currently unemployed translator at stake; many other creative professionals will be facing the same dire consequences - if we don't do something ourselves.
Most surely, this year's Advent Calendar will be about Save Our Internet and have to do with the history of copyright and resistance to it - maybe this very introductory article will be barred because the name of Enjolras (or any other Les Mis character) would be as encouragingly mentioned as Macbeth, if we just sit there idly instead of coming together for the cause.

Cui prodest? (¿Quién gozaría de los beneficios generados por un régimen internacional para la protección de los derechos intelectuales?)
En el caso de obras intelectuales, la motivación pudo ser el interés económico. Por se tratar de bienes inmateriales — por tanto, sin obstáculos a su circulación — había enorme potencial de crecimiento en el mercado. Lo que quedaba pendiente eran las garantías legales de que los derechos serían observados y respetados en otros territorios a semejanza de lo que ocurría en el país de origen del autor.
