You could describe inventions as "facts" too, are you saying that inventions shouldn't be patentable as well? Maybe the fundamental properties of the universe

Maybe the fundamental properties of the universe aren't copyrightable/trademarkable/patentable, but what you CHOOSE to do with those - what API you design or what widget you build out of it certainly is.
- int_19h 8y agoPatents and copyrights are two very different things, though. I don't know if APIs are patentable, but that's a very different question. Has anybody ever successfully patented an API?
