I want to know the answer to the following question:
What does Stallman think copyright was supposed to trade temporarily for public benefit?
All the background I'm provided with is that "On the assumption that intellectual property rights are actual rights Stallman argues that this claim does not live to the historical intentions behind these laws, which in the case of copyright served as a censorship system, and later on, a regulatory model for the printing press that may have benefited authors incidentally, but never interfered with the freedom of average readers.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
