Intellectual Property should be abolished - change my mind! - Lemmy.world

I am strongly convinced that the possession of ideas and creations of the intellect is not possible. In my opinion, only physical things can be possessed, that is, things that are limited, that is, that can only be in one place. The power or the freedom to do with the object what one wants corresponds to the concept of possession. This does not mean, however, that one must expose everything openly. This is ultimately the difference between proprietary solutions, where the “construction manual” is kept to oneself, and the open source philosophy, where this source is accessible to everyone. As the title says, I would oppose this thesis to your arguments and hope that together we can rethink and improve our positions. Please keep in mind that this can be an enrichment for all, so we discuss with each other and not against each other ;)

Hey mateys!

I made a post at /c/libertarianism about the abolition of IP. Maybe some of you will find it interesting.

Please answer in the other community so that all the knowledge is in one place and easier to discover.

Copyright is life of the Author +70 years, patent is 20 years from filing.

Damn that mouse, I’d even be fine with life of the author in theory. But life of the author +70 freaking years is ridiculous.

People would take out hits on people to free an IP, if it is particularly valuable. So lets not bind it to an authors life at all.
