   And plagiarism is how theft in idea space works. If you copy something, the copy is still there. It is still available. But when someone reads your copy they no longer need to read the original. So if you charge them to read it, then you have, in a sense, stolen potential income from the original author. It would be a similar model for infringing on patents.

   So that is how theft in idea space works.
