Businesses were innovative long before patents and copyright became a thing. In fact, evidence shows that society was more innovative without patents and copyright than with.
This calls out the exact problem with this then glosses over it. With big companies able to now swing in and steal any idea this doesn’t work. Times have changed, your idea can be ripped away and sold to everyone while you get nothing. But the mindset of this article is that “there are more copies of your idea out there so it’s cheaper for everyone.” This ignores that the inventor has less motivation to actually invent. Author have less motivation to create. That is the problem.
I feel like people would think very differently if they created something creative and were trying to sell it or start a business. This just reeks of people wanting free stuff without understanding. This is Trump’s Tariffs all over again lol.
I didn’t read the whole book, I didn’t have time. But I did read large sections.
But since you claim to have, explain how that problem is solved. I mean you read it all right? So correct me, how is that problem solved? Show me how big of an idiot I am.

Tell me you haven’t read the entire book without actually saying you haven’t done much more than browse a few pages.
