I believe the answer is:

evermore

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cleverly lifted restrictions on further copies of' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'here to eternity' is the wordplay.
'here' becomes 'more' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'eternity' becomes 'ever' (I've seen this before).
'more' put after 'ever' is 'EVERMORE'.

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for evermore that I've seen before include "unceasingly" , "For which, permanently" , "To all eternity" , "(For) perpetuity" , "Always, forever" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
