      Kind of sad though, particularly in US patent laws. The birth of that patent system was based on protecting the little guy against the big guy as evidenced by one Col. John Stevens (builder of the first US made locomotive) who fought against Oliver Evans (maker of automated grain mills) and John Fitch (builder of the first US made steamboat) concerning steam engine patents: in the earlier system, a patent was granted for the IDEA, including all potential improvements (ie if you were granted a patent for a steam engine, any patents related to the steam engine will belong to you). Col. Stevens fought against that, arguing patents should be granted on the basis of what the inventor actually created at the time of the filing, with improvements being considered separate. Stevens' idea won out, hence the creation of the US Patent system...

      @Esteb5n Caballero I think that is the best take. I understand the business reasons for patenting utilities - you have to earn money off an idea somehow, right? However in reality all it really accomplishes is abusing the market and holding back the progression of technology, as shown in the above video.
      But, I still think there is value in copyright laws for creative content. Otherwise big companies can just steal ideas from independent creators (or other big companies) and make money off them without giving a cent to the creator. This WOULD encourage competition to move from ‘owning the big IPs’ to creating higher quality art, but ultimately it still gives companies the ability to exploit the little guys - the opposite of what abolishing patents would achieve. Unique has identified a problem, but I don’t think in this or any previous videos of his has he nailed the solution. That said I haven’t had time yet to watch the video after this talking about the topic again, and I respect immensely that he’s putting his money where his mouth is, so maybe I’ll change my mind and comment back here with some different thoughts

      Actually you do not need patents for medicine at least, you could publicly fund laboratories with "bounties" if one laboratory develops a recipe for let's say insulin, it receives a hefty bounty, and 5% of the benefits of all sales from his recipe for about 10 years, but anybody can use that recipe, the laboratory is entitled to some of the benefits, but not to decide who uses it, and only entitled for a fixed period, the hefty bounty would be to put economic stimulus so they can start developing another thing.
      That could work to create medicines without patents, by bounties and fixed profit margins, it would still be attractive to develop medicines economically, and you will be forced to compete to be the first to develop so you can receive the bounty, but still want to make a good product so it is sold by retailers and you take profit of the 5%.
      Medicine is one of the fields where it works best publicly than market based, to start with it is morally wrong to profit in a way that does not maximize the use of medicine, not everybody needs a tv, so it is alright to profit from being a douche in that, but when someone is ill they need the medicine, there is no profit to be made there, it is just a resource sink for society, and the market and resource sinks mix together like oil and water.

Someone could make a youtube competitor (like many have tried), but because of youtube's significant amount of advertisers and content creators you won't attract advertisers cuz no content, and vice versa. Its a positive feedback loop. If you were to make a platform focused on the content creators in hopes of the creators jumping ship, you'd still need some sort of monetization program to give the crestors money for making stuff, and why would I as an advertiser go to vimeo, when I have 2 billion users whose data is completely known and tracked (because they're a subsidiary of google), which will give me the ability to not only advertise to a way bigger audience, but also to perfectly customize my ads, and to whom they're targeted for.

    When those same group make a Japanese album you cant find it anywhere except spotify,they even shorten the mv. If you publish it they will get rid of the video immediately. But here is the catch Japan albums usually isnt known even in the fandom itself. So Korean digital albums sell like hotcakes all around the world while Japanese ones sold just in Japan since no one else knows.

      adding my two cents as a programmer and game dev myself... You do not seem to be aware that open source and public domain are fundamentally not even remotely the same thing? In fact it's the differences between them that are the primary reason "huge and greedy corpos are adopting it".
      Open source could not exist without copyright, open source is literally a kind of license, and you don't need a license for works in the public domain. Open source is a way to share your work but control how it's used. controlling how your work is used is literally what intellectual property rights are for.

    Intellectual Property is not the problem. The problem is that it is:
    1) applied to essentials some people need to survive, shouldn't happen obviously (medicine more often than not)
    2) is not owned by the creator and hence the creator loses control and the right to replicate their own work (all big branches of entertainment, but most prominently gaming has this issue)
    Removing intellectual property does solve the first to an extent - not really as anyone not part of the original cartel WILL go bankrupt obviously, leading to the same monopoly to own the means of production anyways -, but it doesn't solve the second, it just makes everything infinitely worse.
    You oversimplify a problem. Without the concept of IP people can literally steal someone's work and get rewarded for it, no consequences. That is never a good option, to have the possibility that you worked your entire life to build up something and then just have a company take it for itself.
    There are things that should belong to public domain like life-saving medicine, but not all things work the same.
    Let's have an example. All IPs are gone in this split second you read this comment. Within minutes, all big video game publishers order their studios to make sequels to successful indie games they didn't have the IPs for before. As an indie developer you have literally 0 chance to conjure up the money required to set up a developer studio that can rival a huge publisher's resources.
    Small businesses lose their rights.
    Large businesses replicate everything due to having infinitely more resources.
    You end up with even larger monopolies than we had in the first place.
    Good job, your idea just ruined everyone's life. That's great.
    As you too can see, IP has a problem. The problem that features and necessities can fall under an IP, which has a very blurry line. One side is a moral question if it is right to let everyone steal innovations from the creator, obviously bloody hell not. The other side is an economical question, that how far should rights go in order to defend the creative minds innovating and when does such restriction of replication cause way too much damage to the free market.
    The line is extremely blurry there and it happens to fall different in a case by case basis.

    • @ZeroKitsune

      Yeah I see a lot of people just applauding in the comments but...I have a lot of the same concerns as you. Like, making your studio public domain (or whatever is the closest legal equivalent license) is great and all until you get big enough that some corporation decides to just co-opt your work and start releasing products at a rate you can't hope to match. When 95% of all the stuff out there isn't even made by you there's a really good chance that you as the original creator will just be washed away in the tide and most of the money will end up going to people who didn't actually come up with anything, but saw an opportunity to squash you instead.
      Getting rid of ALL regulations entirely just leads to anarchy and strongest-wins situations.
