Comment Quick general question... (Score 4, Insightful) 345

OK, I've been doing a little background reading, and my question is, how are internal memos copyrightable? Isn't a copyright supposed to be issued to a work for sale? Unless someone in the company is selling copies of the internal memos, how is it protected?

If they wanted to protect the information, couldn't they invoke Trade Secrets? It would seem to me a better path than copyright.

Of course, couldn't Diebold be liable for sedition? They are trying to usurp the power of the election, something clearly listed and enumerated in the Constitution. Of course, I'm not a lawyer, check out the wording.
