Creation Myths: Does innovation require intellectual property rights?</a>
(by Douglas Clement)
— Some (追記ここまで) economists argue that copyright and patents (削除) <a
href="https://reason.com/2003/03/01/creation-myths-2/"> (削除ここまで) fail to promote
the (削除) progress</a> (削除ここまで) (追記) progress (追記ここまで) that they supposedly exist to promote.
(削除) <p> (削除ここまで)
(追記) <p><em>Note:</em> (追記ここまで) This article takes a narrowly economic view of its subject, measuring
social alternatives only by what goods are available for what price,
assuming that you the citizen are a mere consumer and place no value
on your freedom in itself. It also uses the misleading term
(削除) <a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#IntellectualProperty">“intellectual
property”</a>, (削除ここまで) (追記) “<a
href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#IntellectualProperty">intellectual
property</a>,” (追記ここまで) which is misleading because it lumps copyrights and
patents together. The article also lumps them together, which it can
get away with because it ignores the (different) social issues that
copyrights and patents (削除) raise.
</p><p>
Despite (削除ここまで) (追記) raise.</p>
<p>Despite (追記ここまで) those flaws, it is significant. If one can judge
copyright to be harmful even on narrow economic terms, disregarding the
ethical wrong of stopping people from sharing, it can only be (追記) even (追記ここまで) more
harmful
(削除) once (削除ここまで) (追記) when (追記ここまで) we consider the ethics as (削除) well.
