Gottfried,

re: Maybe many level of market share could trigger different rule, like at 33% some basic rule apply, then at 50% more important rules, then 75% full blast regulation should apply. The whole thing could be trigger only for very big market, maybe only starting when the market is for 1 billions $/year or more.The problem is not IP, it's the standard... When a standard as been established, no matter how or by whom, it should became candidate to expropriation in the public interest.

Would drug companies continue the same level of, say, cancer research? When you decrease the incentive for new product development, doesn't that decrease the investment and risk that individuals and companies are willing to wager? Doesn't that stifle innovation rather than promote innovation?
