  • If you can't appropriate it, it's not property.

    If it's not scarce, it's not property.

    If you have to attack or threaten peaceful competitors to uphold it, it's not property.

    If it was created by monarchs for monopolies and censorship, it's not property.

    Not here, not in china, not anywhere.

  • i would never have guessed you were drawing the swoosh

  • @carveawoodeneye although i agree with you 100%. That's not the way it really works. Lets use your roof example. When a builder or buyer buys a blueprint to build a house, what they're really paying for is the right to use that blueprint for that one house. Which is perfectly legal. It would be illegal however to copy it, and use it on house after house. THAT is what copyright infringement is. When you buy a car, you own that car, but are not legally allowed to copy it in any way. see what i'm s

  • I find it useful to address patents, copyrights and trademarks separately. They are all types of intellectual property.

    Of the three, the only one with a clear social advantage is trademarks, because they accurately communicate the source of the goods. Intentionally trying to fool someone into thinking you are Nike when you are not... is wrong.

    The rest of IP law... trash it. Start over.

    Kill patents and re-evaluate copyrights... there may be some good in copyrights.

  • only physical property rights ie my self and the shit i have acquired through capitalist means!!

  • i am a student of objectivism however, ip rights are bull shit

    here's my reasoning the words i'm typing where someone else's ip!! the roof over my head someone thought to make that!!

    when a teacher in a government school gives a kid a check mark we the taxpayers do not owe nike any money

    i'm a musician if i use the same 7 notes in a scale that someone else made up and put words someone else made up to it i should not own that!! ideas and inventions are modified or compound ideas of the past!!

  • hi I am going to a dissertation on 'how do intellectual property rights affect the global south' If there are any references or opinions you could offer that would be most helpful thanks
