“Intellectual property”（知识产权）——patents 和 copyrights——已变得极具争议。我们目睹青少年因“盗版”音乐而被起诉，也看到非洲的 AIDS 患者因无力支付为了满足 patent holders 利益而居高不下的药费而垂死。patents 和 copyrights 对于繁荣的创造与创新而言真的是不可或缺的吗？我们真的需要它们才能享受美妙音乐与健康体魄吗？跨越时空的响亮回答是：否。所谓的 intellectual property 实际上是一种“intellectual monopoly”（知识垄断），它阻碍而非促进了充满竞争的自由市场机制

现在有大量的学术研究表明，盗版和数字分发并不会在经济上伤害开发者，受损的仅仅是“中间商”。看看 Boldrin 和 Levine 的《Against Intellectual Monopoly》里的一些数据吧：http://www.amazon.com/Against-Intellectual-Monopoly-Michele-... 在这里可以免费下载：http://www.micheleboldrin.com/research/aim.html 我们是时候摒弃这种刻板印象了……
There's plenty of academic studies now that show that pirating and digital distribution don not hurt economically the developer but only the "middle men".

这里有一本主张彻底废除的有趣书籍：《Against Intellectual Monopoly》，作者是加州大学洛杉矶分校和华盛顿大学的经济学教授 Michele Boldrin 和 David K. Levine，2010 年，http://www.micheleboldrin.com/research/aim/anew.all.pdf

……说经济学家也是如此。经济学家比绝大多数人更有可能反对知识产权（IP），而且主张废除知识产权在主流经济学家中也是一种站得住脚的观点（最显著的例子见 Boldrin & Levine 的《Against Intellectual Monopoly》）。当然，“大多数经济学家”并不反对知识产权，因为大多数经济学家连一篇哪怕稍微涉及知识产权经济学的论文都没读过。虽然相关文献的态度相当严厉，……
…about asserting that about economists. Economists are much more likely than most people to be anti-IP, and IP abolitionism is a respectable opinion among mainstream economists (see Boldrin & Levine's Against Intellectual Monopoly for the most prominent example. Now, "most economists" are not anti-IP, because most economists have never read a paper even touching on the economics of IP. And while the literature is pretty damning,…
……历史证据与 Matt Maroon 的断言相悖，企业知识垄断者通常认为版权能“激励”（incent [sic]）创新。详细讨论请参阅 Michele Boldrin 和 David K. Levine 的《Against Intellectual Monopoly》一书。
…historical evidence contradicts Matt Maroon's assertion, conventionally held by corporate intellectual monopolists, that copyrights "incent" [sic] creativity. See Michele Boldrin and David K. Levine's Against Intellectual Monopoly for a detailed discussion.
