You aren't really stealing ideas and copying people you are improving them. If you didn't the chance of success would be far slimmer. This is healthy capitalism. This process forces the other company to respond by improving and morphing. If they don't they risk becoming obsolete.
- bediger 16y agoRe: "stealing ideas" vs "improving on them". Doesn't your comclusion here go against the USA's entire full-court-press on maximal "intellectual property"? I mean, we've extended copyrights, we've allowed just about every vague pipe-dream to be patented, and we've actually criminalized reverse engineering in a lot of situations. I sympathize with your viewpoint, but is that the direction we're heading? Are we heading in the right direction?
