Best case scenario is it nukes the whole concept of software patents and the whole ugly industry of copyright hoarding. The idea that perpetual rent-seeking is a natural extension and intended outcome of the legal concepts of copyrights and patents is bizarre. | ||

I cannot imagine it somehow impacts parents. Copyright and patents are completely independent concepts. The “perpetual” part is the issue but “rent seeking” is the entire reason that copyright and patents exist to begin with. | ||
