[QUOTE="flippawilson, post: 2255852, member: 322954883"] I think this is very interesting. The other day, I was just listening to someone on a radio program talking about the ridiculous aspect of copyright infringements. Don't get me wrong, intellectual property is well worth the fight to keep. But what the guy was talking about on the program was,say 30 yrs,40, 50 years from now, if we have companies coming out every week etc,at what point does someone get there very name trademarked?Technically, We are already Incorporated for those that have a SSN. Will there be any wiggle room for originality when we have things like 1000 youtube videos uploaded everyday(modest number). Surely someone has thought of a HarryPotter type of story before J Rowland(name check?) One lawyer basically said, one has to be found in "bad faith" when deciding if they intentionally meant to use a similar name. It's almost like, it depends on how popular something is in order for there to be any weight in the legal repercussions. Surely, the word Jedi was around before Luc stoled the story, I mean borrowed from other ancient stories. [/QUOTE]
