RE: A brief musing on intellectual property

  • View the full context
philosophy-trail (63)in #musing • 8 years ago

The whole concept of intellectual property is interesting. The whole purpose of it is to claim ownership and distribute it. We want others to have things, but we don't want to be theirs. We want to sell someone the privilege to use things that we want them to use. Paradox?
