I don't get laywer BS jargon.
What ever happened to morals?
What ever happened to doing the right thing?
What ever happened to being a decent human being?
What ever happened to not f$cking anyone and everyone possible over just to make a quick buck?
Wouldn't it make sense that if you create something novel, you should be given credit for it, without needing to pay tens of thousands of dollars in lawyer and patent filing fees?
If people weren't so infatuated with a race to nowhere to accumulate lots of pieces of paper with dead old people on them to use to buy lots of things made of matter they can't take with them when their journey on Earth ends, they might stop to care for other human beings.
I know this goes against the flow of all the licensing talk going on in this thread but...isn't, at the fundamental level, the goal of all people on Earth to be happy, content, and loved? And yet, we're so great at making rules, such that a few of the people fortunate enough to be born in the right countries can exploit the suffering (knowingly or unknowingly) of other human beings to advance their own status, just a little bit.
This has nothing and everything to do with all the talk in this thread. Because, if humans cared more for the success of the species and the whole rather than their own monetary gain, we wouldn't need licensing agreements.
But then again, that's probably why a lot of us do science, not just to get rich, but to help the whole.
