The notion of copyright is going to get very strained when we develop brain implants that let us share memories.
- toomuchtodo 7y agoAs opposed to the strain now with large amounts of cheap storage and bandwidth available? One can already store vast quantities of the world’s data in a few cargo containers with power and connectivity.
- csallen 7y agoThe difference is the level of privacy and intrusion. We're comfortable with people being told to get rid of stolen goods, or to delete copyrighted material from their servers. It remains to be seen that we'd be just as okay with people being forced to remove things from their memories.
- toomuchtodo 7y agoSciHub is my counterpoint. Many are very supportive of copyrighted material being freely available, depending on the material. To your second point, the future is what we make it. Get involved.
