I did not say no IP is necessarily better than some IP, or even that it&#x27;s better than the insane copyright system we have today (though personally I believe strongly that the latter is true). I&#x27;m just saying that this is a debate worth having, and that it is not happening.<p>The invention of IP is one possible explanation of why we have so much content nowadays. Other possible contributing factors include the population explosion of the previous century, the fundamental improvement of communication technologies, and the overall increase in the material conditions of the majority of the population.
