You will note that the term &ldquo;intellectual property&rdquo; has not been used in this article. That term spreads confusion because it is applied to a dozen unrelated laws. Even if we consider just patent law and copyright law, they are so different in their requirements and effects that generalizing about the two is a mistake. Absolutely nothing in this article pertains to copyright law. To avoid leading people to generalize about disparate laws, I never use the term &ldquo;intellectual property&rdquo;, and I never miss it either.
