- Abstract
- The concept of intellectual property is fallacious, and danegrous as it permits ordinarily honest citizens to reproduce everything from software to musical scores without authorization or compensation to the copyright holder. Intellectual property rights are really property rights. There is a need to deal with the issues in which terminology is outstripping legal protection and how proprietary claims as such are under assault. In the context of the US National Information Infrastructure this means a greater clarification of fundamental issues, followed by policy guidelines that can be understood as universal in scope and fair in purpose. The US government must advance the cause of the widest possible access of information to its citizens, while at the same time protecting the sources of creative energies
