Hey mateys!

I made a post at /c/libertarianism about the abolition of IP. Maybe some of you will find it interesting.

Please answer in the other community so that all the knowledge is in one place and easier to discover.

Copyright is life of the Author +70 years, patent is 20 years from filing.

Damn that mouse, I'd even be fine with life of the author in theory. But life of the author +70 freaking years is ridiculous.

People would take out hits on people to free an IP, if it is particularly valuable. So lets not bind it to an authors life at all.
