“People recognize intellectual property (IP) the same way they recognize real estate. People understand what property is. But it’s a new kind of property, so the understanding uses new control surfaces. It uses a new way of defining the property.”
– Michael Nesmith
Just like the real estate industry, IP is subjected to numerous risks in its own ways. An inventor would have to keep on investing in it again and again to receive a return. One cannot sit on the fence and disclose his invention without giving it a proper legal protection, lest he may become powerless to stop people from stealing his work, ideas, words and inventions.
