Comment Different Ideas of Intellectual Property (Score 5, Informative) 325

One thing to take note is that Mexico has different ideas concerning intellectual property. The national emblem for example is ruled by a strict code that does not let allow it to be reproduced for anything other than governmental/national use. The Mexican flag, is similarly protected, it cannot be printed on shirts, or underwear or on guitars like the American flag can. I am not a specialist, but taking these to cases' examples I can imagine a similar train of thought that might lead to protection not necessarily a copyright or I.P. law that restricts the use of such national emblems. Mexican identity is deeply rooted in both catholic(Spanish) and native traditions, national symbols are not so easy to define.
