> For some inventions this makes sense No. It never makes sense. You cannot justify the Intellectual Slavery system, anymore than you can justify the Human Slavery system. It's a restriction on human freedoms; it's incompatible with actual property rights (as it restricts what I can do with my own physical property); it's a subsidy to those who were born into it (when you follow the money that flows to copyrights and patents holders, you see the majority goes to inherited wealth). It's economically bad and morally wrong, is as much as you can have something morally wrong.

The system is utter garbage. We need to shatter the brainwashing that these things make sense.
