This seems to be missing a word, could you clarify?
Also: since you mentioned theft: this actually comes down to the discussion whether you can own thought and/or digital artifacts which can be replicated without taking anything away from the "owner".
Given the absolute choice I'd rather pick complete freedom than restriction. I suspect that anyone's opinion on this follows what they value higher: creation or exploitation.
- mihaic 4y agoSorry, I should have double checked, that sentence was incomplete. Yes, I meant to say that a more nuanced approach is crucial, and that means rejecting that we have to choose between Disney-backed extreme IP laws or total freedom.
