time ago it was already discussed in the blog-class limits in the development of the ideas introduced by overly restrictive laws against copyright potential for an open and free use offered by the new concept of open source. It realizes that it is now used by the companies themselves. Of course it is right to protect the creator of 'ideas, inventions, works of art that, in recognition of paternity, but again you must find a balance, provided it is already guaranteed by law Copyright. Moreover, in many fields of research is increasingly blurred this boundary and it is more a struggle by large industries to gain monopolies in a questionable way. The problem has now opened it's more related to intellectual property now.
To better understand the problem must be distinguished above all that:
- Copyright © (right to copy) is the set of legal rules on copyright in force in Anglo-Saxon world and the U.S.. The
- copyright is the legal position of the author of a 'work, to which national laws and international conventions such as the Berne Convention. Recognize the right of dissemination and exploitation and the right to be identified as such even when he has alienated the faculty of economic exploitation (author's moral rights).
-La intellectual property is the set of legal principles that protect the work of artists, creators and inventors and gives a monopoly of exploitation.
Certainly it is part of a concept also well out of date and is mostly linked to the interests of lobby groups that in this way can control the market without actually generating a benefit, but rather stifle innovation for small / medium businesses main senior staff of 'innovation. A problem with this type is open now with the intellectual property rights on software. Manufacturers must protect themselves from lawsuits with countless charges of money withheld from research by the owners (who are not necessarily producers).
This phenomenon has already begun in the United States and costs billions of dollars each year, and the same may well happen in Europe. The cause lies in the restrictive laws with an unclear legal basis it seems, and it is easy to unwittingly violate well.
The Foundation for a Free Information Infrastructure is working with a petition to block this process.
