looking for information that are then processed in the previous post I came across a rather interesting figure, Richard Stallman. Developed in 1984 by a mechanism for copyright management of intellectual property of software applied in the copyleft free software. Opposed to proprietary software and open source is different from the concept, focusing on the user's freedom and openness not only the source code. With the Free Software Foundation which he founded, established four 'Fundamental freedoms' which should be based on a software that can be considered free:
· Freedom to run the program for any purpose (called "freedom 0")
° Freedom of studying the program and modify it (freedom 1)
· Freedom to copy the program to help your neighbor (freedom 2)
° Freedom of improving the program and distribute the very best, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3)
evoke almost Asimov's laws of robotics.
The idea of \u200b\u200bCopyleft seems a viable alternative, always reflects the concept of open source, though the problem remains, and perhaps also to be fought through the courts.
Judgments of the European courts often have already confirmed the validity of patents on software patents awarded by the European and national lobbying lobbying.
Software authors are already protected at the bottom of the copyright does not prevent others from developing the idea in this direction, promoting a better competition and innovation, especially fair. Among the "buyers of patents," the main involved are Microsoft, Google and Amazon, but also make their services even more open fully control the motors that make them possible. many scientific and economic studies justify now the abolition of software patents
