Published January 16, 2001 |
- You shouldn't reproduce inventions without license from the inventor or assignee
- You shouldn't imitate systems or methods without license from the originator
- You shouldn't copy or redistribute recorded content without license from the copyright holder
- You shouldn't use software without license from the owner
- You shouldn't imitate another design without license from the designer or assignee
- You shouldn't use genetic material without license from the gene donor
This list is not meant to be complete or satisfactory, but is in pursuit of a stable platform for the growth of the information revolution: in pursuit of an incentive structure that protects and balances with an eye toward optimizing the rate of evolution.
Open dialog about the appropriate framework for a connected world can help us to anticipate change, and possibly attain a competitive advantage by better preparing our companies for the future.
