Hi, creator here, I license all my music under Creative Commons BY because I don't agree with the concept of copyright and want people to freely use and enjoy my music. I also don't really "sell" my work, I just ask for a suggested donation. I'd argue a lot of artists have a similar desire for their work to be spread as far as possible, and shared with as many as possible. Most of the actual money in the music industry goes to corpo suits who specifically want to restrict the ability for people to interact with my music, so they can enrich themselves. In the U.S. at least, that seems to be the norm of the "art industry." Greedy executives making huge bucks profiting off the work of creatives, while those creatives rarely see the same profits.

Oh obviously what this post is about is a gross overreach and devastating to a young life for no reason at all. As a creator I have mulled this. Did I care if people ever snuck into any of my bands shows? No, but we were never famous. Would I care if people pirated the game I'm attempting to make? Once again, I'm not famous or selling anything to the tune of hundreds of thousands, and, I dont care, again. If people are listening to my music, or playing my game, or in anyway just enjoying things I made, I think I could live with that. Its not about the money, its about burring yourself in the collective zeitgeist for ages to come.
