Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter (now X) and Square (now Block), sparked a weekend’s worth of debate around intellectual property, patents, and copyright, with a characteristically terse post declaring, “delete all IP law.”
X’s current owner Elon Musk quickly replied, “I agree.”
So you are assuming they didn’t make them for reasons that didn’t exist at the time.
Ok.
No. I’m assuming that they didn’t make them based on simple and rational thought processes that I’ve already outlined several times.
Does the fact that the richest billionaires in the world all want to get rid of them not concern you at all?
I assume that the way that Dorsey and Musk want to ‘get rid of them’ means for everyone else and will be terrible.
But that doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that before patents and copyright people made all kinds of things and had zero reason to not make something just because someone else cpuld too. That is a made up theory of yours that has no basis in reality.
