      Well, it’s fair enough to be angry about it, as it affects your living directly.

      But, hypothetically speaking, how long do you feel it’s fair for ip property rights to be enforced?

          Oh, I see it. I asked you tangentially related question. Let’s say I’m an american company with a patent for, let’s say, hiv drug. Someone doing knock off of this drug and selling it.

          Do you think the feelings of the people inside that company would be significantly different from yours?

              But that’s just reinforcing capitalism forever then. (You got paid for your labor in your check I assume).

              Of course, systemically if one competitor just rips off intellectual labor of another (thus exploiting it), he will prevail every time :( what a mess, stupid private ip:(

                  Yeah, as I was writing I realized I was being somewhat heartless.

                  This self-perpetuating capitalist logic drives me up the wall, you cannot solve it without fucking people and their jobs over :(

                  Edit: but like at some point something got to give, be it either oil workers or insurance complaint filers, and it won’t land with them either
