This thread is a good example, for one of the reasons, why I try not to read HN comments anymore. (Failed this time though, as I'm very interested in serious discussions on this topic) There's a lot of information out there for anyone who wants to actually try and understand the issues, instead of dismissing people who have though about them and claiming everything is bullshit, econ101 and stealing. How can you even have a discussion with someone that can't even differentiate between physical property and intellectual property? Either we try and work around the issues and find solutions, or give up civil liberties in the name of stagnating business models. Incomprehension and ignorance must be the lobbyists best friends.
