Wow. No Texas institution can be prosecuted for intellectual property theft. By that logic @MDAndersonNews
should stop paying for drugs. @UHouston should stop paying for textbooks. @UTexasMcCombs
should just copy @HarvardHBS cases. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/amp/Texas-court-says-photographer-has-no-recourse-13973674.php …

That's not a 'State of Texas' institution though, I think.
Exactly. Sovereign means “possessing supreme or ultimate power”, so that’s definitely not a state university at all. If they can expand that to entities outside the actual government then a huge number of orgs could just rob mofo blind. I predict this goes higher and gets denied
