   Yes I've heard about it. It's from 1886. The USA didn't however ratify it
until more than 100 years later (entered into force for the United States on
March 1, 1989), when they realized that they started to lose more money than
they gained from continuing to violate the convention, happily copying and
selling famous foreign works for centuries.

   From the same Wikipedia article:

The United States initially refused to become a party to the Convention, since
that would have required major changes in its copyright law, particularly with
regard to moral rights, removal of the general requirement for registration of
copyright works and elimination of mandatory copyright notice.

   Unfortunately for him, as I recall it, those claims predate March 1, 1989 so
I don't think he'd get lucky on an international arena.

   That's not how it works.
