Am I the only one who sees these two institutional structures as limiting and constaining progress on our world? Imagine someone could patent the wheel, it's just a fucken circle, nothing in our reality should be kept from public use and optimization. Capatist pigs... CCCP all the way!!! (just kiding about the CCCP thing)
I'm feeling pure evil jadedness. right now..

this is the next step in human evolution. I heard it on radio. Don't remember right now what were the first steps but an example of the one were entering is the open source consortium.
I'm feeling up right now..

I guess the only good point is to think that some research wouldn't be done if the people doing it we're not sure to have the copyrights after that....???

True, but greed shouldn't be a motivational institution either... Do we really need something if it's only purpose is to profit? Maybe. Credit is one thing but too often it seems like patented ideas are self evident, and what happens when somebody discovers the same exact thing that someone else did, they work just as hard but they are called a thief instead of an innovator.

Don't tell anybody... but I'm going to patent a new technology which uses stem cell technology to clone a secret army of innovators who will THEN patent all their garbage/money collecting ideas for me.

Clever huh?

shhh...

i'm just glad they disallowed dna and genomes being patented, however, they still patent medicinal molecules (drugs) but they do have a time limit (like 6 or 8 years or something like that)

monsanto is evil tho, forcing farmers to buy their transgenic crops that only last one season anyway

DAMN YOU

I dunno about you people, but if i spend my life inventing a new technology, i wouldn't appreciate some other company taking my idea without my consent and redistributing it..

how can anyone be against protecting our rights ?? i am confused..
I'm feeling beckers @ rewire 3 right now..

Farmers have had to buy new seeds each year for almost as long as I've been alive. Hybrids as well don't produce viable seeds.
I'm feeling like a bear right now..

I guess the more general discussion is that companies are the problem to begin with, then again I'm no commie...
