  Amaro Koberle criticized idea #1371.

So… the law extending to others’ property is nothing new and not totalitarian in and of itself.

#1371 · Dennis Hackethal, 5 days ago

Just intuitively, I feel like there's a difference between forcing others not to force you, and forcing others not to copy you. I feel like defending against others using your scarce means towards their ends is just, while defending against others using non-scarce means towards their end is wicked. Since I impose no opportunity cost on someone by copying information, they have no claim on my scarce means as recompense. The copy-ability of information gives us this nice non-zero-sum situation where we can have our cake and eat it too because we don't have to economize on non-scarce things.
