Magicians fought over an ultra-secret tracker dedicated to stealing magic tricks
> The site is a trading post for stolen, pirated and unlawfully copied tricks, which are covered by copyright, trademarks or other intellectual property in much the same way that TV shows and films are.<p>A video or whatever may be copyrighted, but it's not really possible to protect a "trick". You can patent a process, but of course this reveals it to the public.<p>Most of the described contents of the tracker are commercially released products. That's really not "stealing tricks" in any way.
