Yeah, to perpetuate this system where only those who can afford lawyers get to benefit

Since it’s case law, everyone would benefit from the precedent

The last time the US Supreme Court decided on copyright law, they basically said "we like what Google is doing with Android, so what they did is fine".

So, no, not necessarily.

There already is precedent with cases like Aaron Swartz.

No there’s not, he killed himself before there was a decision. That doesn’t create precedent.
