One of the biggest challenges any new enterprise faces is the threat of intellectual property violation.
As a fledgling writer and publisher that works each time to create something new - the odds of being subsumed and having the idea reproduced (i.e. a violation of copyright) is a clear and present danger.
It threatens survival... something I've been having to deal with in the past months.
But moreover, it's the anger of having spent sleepless months and years working to perfect something... only to have a bigger Goliath take it overnight and run with it - that feeling that they are entitled to steal someones works just because they can. No permission requested, a million reproductions spread out across the globe overnight, no acknowledgement, no royalties for use of concept.
These 'paper pushers' have no clue on what it takes to create. They sit in their cushy jobs, wait for their paycheck and blush with pride when complimented on an idea they stole.
Well, perhaps its time to get even.
With this latest development, they've cause this company to be on the brink of survival. Would it be too much to have ones pound of flesh and quart of blood too?
