> Disney removes all other copies, but allows access to the original.

But they don't have to - they could banish Mickey from the world if they chose to. Copyright allows them to do it. Is that wrong?

I think it's more about who created the information - copyright is about controlling things you yourself create. Censorship is about controlling access to things other people created.

Be the way, can the company be the creator? The work of art is created by people. So why the current Disney's directors or shareholders do control the creation of the company's founder who has passed decades ago?
