If any kind of sound waves are in the air, in my house, like radio waves, tv, police radio, satellite, etc, and I pick them up on whetever contraption I happen to have, on purpose or not, then it is my right to hear those sounds. True?

Songs are sounds.
If your song is floating around in places where my ears can hear it, and it is picked up by my brain, I cannot stop my brain from processing it and whoops – it comes out of mouth at anytime in the form of singing or a whistle.
That is my right.

If you truly want to protect your song, do not let anyone hear it. Simple as that.

This is a DAMN Shame! What happened to land of the free?? Singing is uplifting for many people, Now I guess the government wants everyone to be depressed! “F” Them! Keep up with your singing! I love to listen to anyone with a beautiful voice!

that would mean that music schools would have to close and in 1 or 2 decades no musicians would be alive.

“no one buys anything from them.”

I am not buying anything from them already.

What would be the next step as a punishment?

Even if it’s NOT a hoax, it’s definitely a joke.

“Theyâd squeeze a nickel out of a toddler for singing London bridge is falling down.”

Sony attempts to do that every few years, in regard to “Happy birthday to you.”

Pitiful.

They probably reversed their stance based on fears of what could happen if they went forward, ie: no one buys anything from them.
