Is it not what is already happening with our current system ? The little guy never have the ressources to fight legal battle against the big guy and enforce it's "intellectual property".
And the opposite would be true in a world without patent, small businesses could win because they would be free to reuse and adapt big businesses' ideas.
It feels very simplistic to reduce patents to "protection of the little business", in our current world they mostly protect the big ones.
Also this small example doesn't elaborate about how removing copyrights would so negatively affects our society
I mean we’ve seen it work multiple times against Apple where a smaller company has been able to enforce their patent against them.
There's a reason why the sharks on shark tank ask if ideas are patented. Without a patent, your idea can be ripped off without any recompense.
Sure there are problems with some patents, such as software patents, but the system should be reformed rather than completely tossed.
