    Actually fully agreed. IP, trademarks, copyright, all that shit just serves to make the rich richer and stifle innovation.

        what stops them from replicating my thing with more money and resources?

        That’s what happens today, anyway. Most of us cannot afford the lawyers to make the law work for us.

        In contrast, if we re-use an innovation the billionaires have purchased, we go to jail.
