Was thinking of this after a conversation I had on a thread about dreams. Someone joked “I was dreaming of the events of The Matrix, then I was woken up by someone worried my dream was infringing the Wachowski’s copyrights”, and it turned into a whole train of thought in my mind, like violating IP law because you stole fire from Zeus which was his intellectual property.

    Damn, if only someone had asked a hypothetical question wherein copyright law controls everything.

    Oh well, that’ll never happen.

    Good thing you were here to rectify such a foolish mistake.
