Z:gnu-www-ja-not-ipr--2894b2-Some of these alternative name/en

Some of these alternative names would be an improvement, but it is a mistake to replace &ldquo;intellectual property&rdquo; with any other term. A different name will not address the term's deeper problem: overgeneralization. There is no such unified thing as &ldquo;intellectual property&rdquo;&mdash;it is a mirage. The only reason people think it makes sense as a coherent category is that widespread use of the term has misled them about the laws in question.
