The Tenants of the Information Age

 

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.
