As an artist, designer (lil software engineer). I agree. Most of the advanced technical know how are out of public knowledge reach. There's no way to find that information online, even considering pay walls.

I agree with your attitude about IP. For tens of thousands of years humans freely imitated every good idea they saw, in a process known as "the spread of civilization". But then somebody figured out how to make shitloads of money by producing copies of other people's work and paying them a pittance, aka "royalty", and suddenly copying and imitation became immoral.

We should gather up all of the people that pushed the Palestinian genocide (including those that censored or shamed others for speaking up about it) and turn them into a gory pile of steaming meat using the weapons that they used on innocent Palestinians.
