When I steal and eat your apple you don't have it any more. When I copy your text, song, movie you still have it.
Welcome to ET :).
I assumed that meta had some device or software that allowed him to spot conservatives from a distance. Thus being a valuable device, I was only looking out for his rights.
Any way unlike Robert, you can use my words freely. ------------------------------ Rutherfordian RDRutherford
Hopefully the USA constitution is saner:
The Congress shall have Power ... To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;
If those government created "rights" don't create progress, they're unconstitutionnal in the USA.
No question of "making money".
It was to promote the progress by securing property rights. Nothing says that rights will be bypassed if someone concludes that "Progress" is greater with more limited rights.
I will take it back, you only have 5 days to use my words. LOL. ------------------------------ Rutherfordian RDRutherford
