  All you described is happening WITH copyright and even enforced by it.

  Without the protection of copyright, artists, authors, musicians, video content creators, etc. have no say in how their work is used.

  Copyright owner is not author. Publisher(disney, EA, Ubisoft) controls everything and author has no say in it. Often authors in order to discuss their works and show portfolios have to pirate their own work(e.g. The Owl House). So copyright protects inability of artists, authors, musicians, video content creators, etc. have no say in how their work is used.

  It seems you misunderstand the goal of goverment.

  This is your opinion of what you want governments to be, not what they actually are.

  I am sorry your country doesn’t try or even claim to be social.

  What is the point of not researching and having bigger budget, if it can’t buy thing that did not get created?

  What a lot of negatives and hypotheticals. All solved by getting a return on investment and having that money to do more things with, including research.

  So in the end money will be spent on research anyway.

  And then on goverment level there is no such thing as copyright or patent.

  I’d like to introduce you to the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) which is an intergovernmental organisation that does precisely what you say doesn’t exist.

  And what next? It can’t stop any goverment from ignoring copyright or patent.

  I’m saying it is necessary to achieve the aims of the GPL.

  Which would make GPL toothless, but that’s fine because it would no longer be unnecessary.

  Copyright for software is a joke. Software is only copyrightable thing, where mandatory copy is not enforced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Free software is response to software copyright and software patents.

  Trademark is also useful. I don’t want Tyson making fake vegan hot dogs

  It has nothing to do with trademark.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Example. Copyright is a joke. For art if you have more lawyers, you win. For software mandatory copy laws are not enforced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Patent documents are rarely useful because they’re kept as general and opaque as possible to cover as many innovations as possible.

  I think this is a problem that can be fixed inside of patent system. Make it so by the end of patent life there is “how to build production line of this” manual.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Research is supposed to be public benefiting. Private funding just is bad at it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  if another country immediately fakes the product and prevents the government from collecting back the taxes it spent on the research

  It seems you misunderstand the goal of goverment. Goverment doesn’t care if budget goes down, when quality of life goes up. What is the point of not researching and having bigger budget, if it can’t buy thing that did not get created?

  And then on goverment level there is no such thing as copyright or patent. On goverment level laws are not some external condition, but something that changed regularly.

  plus a competitor can’t just “take all of that work and investment”, they will need to put in money to create their own product,

  Not true. One major issue is that many competitors literally copy the product exactly. Fake products wreck the original company

  They STILL need to put in money to create their own product. You know, they can’t magic production lines into existance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  1. Performance is often more tied to the code than to the interpreter - an O(n³) algorithm in blazing fast C won’t necessarily perform any better than an O(nlogn) algorithm in Python.

  An O(n³) algorithm in Python won’t necessarily perform any better than an O(nlogn) algorithm in C. Ever heard of galactic algorithms?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There are decades of articles on c++ optimizations, that say “use empty() instead of size()”, which is same as here.

  Ubisoft’s stocks aren’t ubisoft’s assets. It is opinion on how much they worth, not how much they have.
