What can you find in a cartoon? About the rationale of intellectual property

I thank a friendly blog (S.I.lex) devoted to IT and IP issues for drawing my attention to the above cartoon. It originates from a funny site where Mimi & Eunice discuss very serious issues of Intellectual Property.

Also worth to be underlined: the traditional ‘copyright notice’ (©, name, date) is replaced by a lovely:

♡ Copying is an act of love. Please copy.

Showing my love, I copy this cartoon for you… to think and respond to the question it raises. With nuances as always!
