I think that if "intellectual property" which I oppose as an idea was abolished v4v would flourish.

Do you think it can still flourish in this sector of the market with intellectual property still in existence?
Yes, but its a very cultural thing and the fiat mindset is probably a bigger factor. The "free" ad model is still dominant and few yet understand the tradeoffs of that model.
Why do you oppose intellectual property as an idea?
Its a logical fallacy. Ideas aren't property. If I write it down on paper that paper is property. Copying is different from stealing. That's the shortest version.
Reading this and thinking through it for a few months changed my mind on the topic many years ago. Against Intellectual Property
On the surface what I'm saying sounds right but functionally I didn't see how a world without IP would function. Today I think IP actually holds humanity back just as most state actions that limit the free exchange of ideas and good do.
