Copyright and patents do serve some good purposes; this is why they were introduced in the first place.
It's the endless extension of copyright (hello, Mickey Mouse) and granting excessively wide patent rights (e.g. on whole classes of chemical compounds) that does not serve the initially envisioned good purposes. Overdose is bad, whether you use table salt, a medicine, or a law.
ARM in particular is not known for abuse of the system, so indeed they are a positive example.
