I don’t understand why companies keeping their innovation secret is seen as a good thing. Speaking mostly from a technological and scientific perspective, if their innovation is known and other similar companies start doing the same wouldn’t it be better since there is more technological/scientific progress?
It’s not a good thing. Just one more reason why capitalism is fucking irrational.
B-b-b-ut muh billionaire profits brah /s
Innovating product designs: subscription for a toaster
And subscription for a heater for a car seat
Im goong to FUCKIN go. The key is in the god damned ignition!
This is racist. China opened up and made a fair bargain that they would receive technology and industry in exchange for producing all the wests goods. Dumb western boy is just mad his country got outsmarted because China played the long game while the greedy capitalists couldn’t see beyond a quarters growth so he paints the Chinese as deceptive and untrustworthy.
Now let’s ask the yanks how they innovated during the 90’s and 00’s what that has to do with the USSR collapse
Japan literally copied the designs from the ZTZ99 for their T10
Chinese tank
Japanese tank Like, yes, not exactly the same, but it’s not as if the J10 and F35 are so similar either, so by their own standards they copy more
China currently has stricter enforcement of intellectual property laws than the west.
Plus the US offered immunity and bunch of money to anyone who would steal cotton mills and railroads from England to kick start its own industrialization England in turn stole techniques and resources from all over the world at least China didn’t industrialize with fucking opium money and its not like “stealing” technology is a bad thing.
These dumbasses truly believe that the world was disconnected prior to the 21st century because they think the only connections people can have is online. They don’t know that technology spread throughout history, albeit more slowly. Like how do they think humanity advanced.
I always remember people saying at the eve of internet that the world is now based on knowledge. Well this is false even in their own meaning because world was always based on knowledge. Ever since humans learned to communicate those that taught their own knowledge were building on it and accumulating. That’s also why every time some breaktrough in knowledge storage, dissemination and communication occured the progress was also increasing. As i mentioned speech, then writing, then printing, then cheap paper, then letterpress, then radio and telegraph, then internet.
IP is actually a crime against human civilization.
That’s right China’s time travelling to the future to steal designs for things like 5G and bullet trains that western companies will invent next century. 😂
