OldHawk777's Journal: IMO all IPR and RPR laws need to protect FREEDOM!

"My Reality (IMO)" only a human (or any sentient) can have creativity proportional to intellect. All IPR laws should be focused on protecting the creative/innovative human/individual freedom, products, livelihood, living standard from plutocrats, corporatist, and/or dogmatists exploitation.

Governments, Religions, Militaries, Schools ... are institutions. Institutions are inanimate social objects initiated and organized with a purpose to facilitate social/community collaboration, services, interests .... Institutions/Organizations either have a public (Government/Military) purpose, or a private (Church/Business) purpose.

The prevailing logic of the Private verses Public relationship will always be to reject the public interest. However, the prevailing logic of the Public verses Private relationship will always be recognition of Private [AKA: Individual] value and rights. Without Public-Private balance democracy and capitalism are but myths spoken of with great fervor, but no values.

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) should belong to the original public-individual innovator with inclusive use and value generation, not the private-institution Real Property Rights (RPR) owner with exclusive use and value stagnation.

Real honest competitive Capitalism, Meritocracy, and Democracy would Never, Never, NEVER allow IPR selling.Selling and Buying IPR is exploitation by RPR "feudal" institutions. Human IP should be for lease only to businesses for production, marketing, commercial purposes, but a lease/IPR should never encumber in any way the innovative/creative persons hacking/designing to perfection another wonderful product. Arbitrate a multi-owner-IP lease for production, marketing, commercial purposes.

I buy a media/entertainment product. I use the product (music, book, video ...)
for as long as I want, wherever I want, in any personal (not public) way that I
want, on any type of my personal products/media I want.

At any point, I attempt to use any IPR protected product for (non educational)
personal real/virtual value gain (bar, theater ...) then I must negotiate with
the owner and/or accept binding arbitration as too the appropriate compensations
percentage value of the IPR product added to my innovative, creative, business use.
If I, associates, or others make no real/virtual financial gain, then no added
value no added compensation to the IPR holder of the original product or tax payment.

IPR laws should leverage original ideas/content to induce greater creativity, innovation,
development, evolution, revolution for humanity. IOW: IPR should never prevent fair and
reasonable use of a product. IPR laws need to help create and develop a far better products
and economic growth. If a product is improved/enhanced to provide added value ... then
append the original IPR certificate with secondary IPR certificates that either increase
the total value or stabilizes product value over decades.

Taxes assessed on real property is reasonably easy. Taxing intellectual property is impossible until a point of business transaction occurs. Van Gogh sold pictures for very little compared to the sale of a Van Gogh today. For Van Gogh it was intellectual property which he had in abundance. For the critic, collector, connoisseur ... the Van Gogh painting is real property providing ROI/profit by personal aesthetics appreciation, resale value, and/or egotistical prestige. It would have been best if all Van Gogh paintings had returned to their intellectual creative owner [AKA Van Gogh] estate after a lease lapsed and the owner [AKA Van Gogh] with a Will (or state executor) should have been able to give (tax-free) ownership to other family/friends or museums. Family/friends could sale ownership and pay a sales tax, and Museums could loan, but never sale any art object. Apply to writers (books, movies, code ...), Architects, Engineers, Scientist, sculptures .... Business would lease IPR, produce RPR, and market products for a ROI value, and with total Mod/Hack freedom and Copy-left personal use.
