      Intellectual property is an umbrella term for copyright, patents, and trademarks used to make it sound like “property” is “stolen” when licensing agreements are violated.

          The idea that it shares the same features as anything else we consider “property” is the problem, so why call it property? The only thing that one can “own” in this regime is the license itself, and that doesn’t go away just because someone violates its terms.
