Chapter 9: Legal Challenges for Entrepreneurial Ventures
1) The most surprising part of this chapter was the fact that patents are a difficulty. They cost too much money and take up too much time to get. I did not know much about patents beforehand. It is quite funny because I watched Family Guy the other night and it had Albert Einstein working at the patent office.
2) One of the parts that was confusing to me was about copyrights. I am unsure of what is considered "fair use" when evaluating if there is copyright infringement.
3) One question I have for the author is: How does someone violate copyrights when it is a compilation of pieces put together, like facts? It is unclear on how to violate this if well-known facts are not protected in general. Another question I have is: Why do people use patents still if it is such a difficult process? It just seems like a waste of time and I want to know why people still do it.
4) I do not disagree with anything in this chapter. The author has written more facts than any opinions in this section and it is hard to argue with facts. Facts are facts.
