What are intellectual property boundaries?

In: Intellectual Property, Copyright Law [Edit categories]

Answer:

Intellectual property boundaries are set in a number of ways.

First no intellectual property can be protected forever. It either has a fixed term (copyright/patent) or must be renewed regularly (trademark).

Additional limits are set by exceptions to existing law allowing intellectual property to be used without 1st having to seek permission ("fair use", "right of 1st sale", etc)
