Knowlege should not have ownership. Training and distillation should be allowed

Granting people some form of control over knowledge only serves the public interest inasmuch it provides incentive to create more of it. Mass media, effortless duplication, and copyright extensions had already broken this to the point where control of knowledge was suppressing creation of new knowledge more than it facilitated.

The world has changed, we need a mechanism that works for the public interest that applies to the facts as they now are.
