Yeah, good. More eyes and minds working on research means more chances at cool discoveries and advancements.
IP ostensibly exists so people can make a living selling their inventions or whatever, which is so many steps removed from the better solution of just giving people food and a house. Fuck markets, fuck marketing, steal my shit and make it cooler than I ever could have alone. Or fuck it up and send people my way looking for the real deal. Either way I’ll still keep making that garbage because I love making it.
The main reason for the China doesn’t respect muh IP laws thing is the good old racist Westerner belief that China is incapable of developing anything on their own, they can only rip off Western products.
