Most of the work that gets appropriated from marginalized people isn't protectable under any IP regime.

Intellectual property law is PROPERTY LAW. It's about financial exploitation under capitalism.

Plagiarism is violation of an extralegal norm based in morality.

Don't fucking bring up the monkey selfie in this context again. Jesus Christ.

IP maximalism benefits corporations. Not marginalized groups.

@sarahjeong@CatSwetel most of those marginalized ppl are employed by companies that assert ownership specifically over the ip they generate -
@CatSwetel@sarahjeong oddly, would you consider them marginalized if they are choosing that employment or those limitations? -
@mattbarcomb@sarahjeong I guess I'd need you to define choose. If u r presented w choice of IP owning corp or no job, not much choice. -
@CatSwetel Hmmm. How to tell between no choice and no action? How to Keep From being an excuse? -
@mattbarcomb do you not believe our society has marginalized groups of ppl? Or do you not believe one can be marginalized and employed? -
@CatSwetel I do... I guess I'm on employees should band together and take action kick at the moment :-)
