Baby Yoda Shows Us the Force of Intellectual Property Rights , Observer;
"Intellectual property protections allow for producers, such as
Disney, to safeguard their secrets and profit off of the
carefully-crafted storylines enjoyed by millions of fans around the
world. Meanwhile, fans can still have their fun by posting movie-related
memes that (likely) enjoy legal protection from copyright law.
And
even when companies may be within their rights to sue for IP
infringements, they must still weigh market considerations and make
sensible decisions that please their consumer base. That’s critical,
because ideas like lightsabers and Baby Yoda’s aren’t created in a
vacuum (of space). IP protection allows us to travel to a galaxy far,
far away, without being trampled by a bantha herd of lawsuits."
