GPL is a response to copyright laws. If there were no copyright laws we wouldn’t need GPL.
Prohibiton doesn’t work. Regulations need to passed by government bodies not open source developers.

You do realise that even if copyright were abolished, large, powerful corporations would continue to exist and even manage to use the absence of copyright to their advantage? Without the GPL being enforced, a company like Microsoft could finally start digging a moat around Linux without constraints.
