I want to see what would happen if we abolished all IP law except for trademarks. No patents, no copyrights. I personally doubt it would actually discourage anyone from producing art or innovating in science/technology, but it might have other unexpected negative effects.
- radiKal07 4y agoBad idea. The small guy with a genius innovation will get eaten by the big corporation with 100x more resources.
- skinnymuch 4y agoSeems like for profit private corporations are the problem. Not the idea.
- spigottoday 4y agoOne negative effect might be that you don't get to hear the music, read the book or view the art because you are not the wealthy patron or one of their friends. That's the way it used to work.
