Seems like pretty standard stuff. We've just pulled the ladder up after ourselves with the export of the US copyright regime via trade agreements.
- thephyber 4y agoI get that IP is screwed ip in the US, partially by lobbying and partially by ineffective regulation. But we have it on the books and US courts are all too happy to encourage IP knife fights (see the court in that forgettable “West” Texas county that all of the major tech companies choose to use for their litigation). In practice, Chinese companies don’t use IP and have much closer to perfect market competition. The Chinese government chooses not to enforce what IP they have on the books, suggesting it only exists for the purposes of homogenizing with international trade treaties.
