intellectual property

you own your ideas

when we share, we all benefit

not every law is sensible

sharing transmits culture

borrowing is not stealing

“Overprotecting intellectual property is as as
harmful as underprotecting it. Creativity is
impossible without a rich public domain.
Overprotection stifles the the very creative
forces it is supposed to nurture...
... Nothing today, likely nothing since we
tamed fire, is genuinely new: Culture, like
science and technology, grows by
accretion, each new creator building on the
works of those who came before”
Judge Alex Kozinski
US Court of Appeals
