  The problem is not sharing and accessing, but generating. If we had a system where people would be paid for generating knowledge, then they wouldn’t have to charge for accessing knowledge.

  That’s why a lot more research should be paid for by the government. In exchange, government-funded research would be excluded from having patents and/or copyright.

    Goverment funded research is paid for my public money via taxes but the research information is not publicly accessible, I can understand this if it’s defense or other secretive research but there is no reason someone should have to pay for access to other research fields information when it is publicly funded

    Depends on how specific the information is and how well it’s hidden among alternative facts
