Unauthorized and Copyright are not the same thing. The individual taking the photo still has a right to use it for personal uses. "I was taking a video of Wacker Drive and all these damn movie people kept getting in the way."
"Ansel interpreted the negative very heavily." What the reporters are dancing around is that Adams prints were made from many different negatives. So the negatives themselves are not the same as his prints.
If I got an email like that I would assume it was phishing or spam. It reads like it was written by someone who has a limited grasp of english. Maybe Warner Bros. is looking for better writers.
What if there is no "the" inventor? What if several people develop the idea independently? Then it rewards the person who registers a broad idea first and uses the patent to make money from all the people who actually do something with it.
Re: Not $15k in 3 minutes, but $15k in many years of hard work.
If you sell $15000 in three minutes you have made $15000 in three minutes. You can switch to average per hour or any other measure you want but it is still $15000 in three minutes. Your life experience argument is badly done and ignores the fact that everything we do has to be learned. No one bases hourly rates or income on the time you spent in grade school acquiring basic skills.
If you sold the boat why don't you have the resources to build another? That is supposed to be part of the selling price.
Also the last three paragraphs of your post just do not make any sense. They don't follow from your initial argument and are really just off the wall. You might want to repharse them so they are understandable.
I don't think that is neccessarily true. What you are using to define success is the corporate or financial definition of success. What the internet is now allowing is that the creative person gets to define his or her own level. So while I agree most people do not get rich, it may be that more people than we think are getting what they want. If you look at it from a business point a view a small business meeting its goals is just as successful as a large corporation meeting is goals.
Except for the fact that they don't. A tradmark applies to the industries the holder is engaged in not every possible type of industry. Further, as pointed out in the article the term was already in use and you cannot tradmark generic terms.
I am so happy to read this. Since you have to be privy to the details of the agreement in order to say this, perhaps you can provide answers to all those worrying questions.
Since you asked so nicely I will explain it to you. There is an AC who while refusing to adopt a name to refer to looks to identify himself/herself by only typing in lower case. Stating the comment is in lower case is something stupid is the same as saying senshikaze typed something stupid.
