No not really, if your intellectualism is worth copying then they'll be people out their trying to copy it and that's when you need I.P laws to protect you. Until you have done such a thing you won't require protection any more than a catholic priest will require protection from getting a choir boy pregnant.

People read and reply to my usenet postings, so apparently they are interested in using my creative output. If nobody was replying to my usenet postings, you might have a point. > > >So, where do I submit my creative output in order to guarantee my > >rights? > > First you have to output something creative that someone actually wants. > 10011001111 isn't exactly in great demand Some of my pictures have received over 20.000 views. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thcganja/416926364/ So there does seem to be some interest in my creative output.

I also share my own information.. I have many pictures and videos online and people also seem to be interested in my usenet postings, given the amount of replies I get.

Why is it you never share information that you have created, and what if someone else puts up your information without your permission ? Do you think it's still yours or does it belong to everyone ? If you disclose information by putting it on the internet, that means you can't complain when others duplicate that information and share it with others. If you don't like others duplicating and sharing information that you have created, you should not put your information online. It's as simple as that. Property laws are limited by your obligations as an owner of property to take care of your possessions. If you were to leave your valuable possessions like jewelry out on the streets deliberately, you can't expect help from the police to guard your possessions if other people might think you've left the jewelry out on the streets as a gift for others. Go ahead and try it out in practice to see if your human right to own property implies you have the right to leave your possessions unguarded out on the streets wherever you go. It's the same with intellectual property. If you've created a particular piece of information that has value because it's relatively unique, the only way for you to retain that information as intellectual property would be to keep it to yourself. As soon as you put the information online, that means others have access to it and they can share it with others as they see fit and it would be very silly if you complain afterwards that people disrespect your spurious intellectual property claims. So if I create a bitstring, it's mine and nobody has the right to break into my house in order to obtain a copy from that bitstring, but as soon as I've put the bitstring on the internet where it's available to anyone who would like a copy, it would be silly for me to complain that other people are violating my intellectual property rights by sharing and duplicating a bitstring that I have originally created. This usenet posting is a bitstring just the same and obviously people are ignoring my spurious intellectual property claims which stipulate that people are only allowed to reply to my usenet postings if they agree with my outlook on intellectual property and the freedom to share information.

I regularly share information I have created and if someone else shares my information with other people who collect information, that's just fine because it's a human right to share and exchange information. All information out there on the internet belongs to everyone and they would only be violating my creative rights if they take information created by me and claim they have created it themselves. |
