Some actual cases of IP

I knew a graphic designer once.  He had made a series of cards.  Later, Haulmark made a series of cards almost identical.  Although my friend had very good evidence of IP infringement, his lawyer advised doing anything about it, because Hallmart would immediately pull the cards, and then counter-sue for lost revenue.

In cases of patents,... I will quote Tianjin, "There is no greater waste of time and energy for an inventor".  
So, a guy patents and makes a great thing.  The person next door copies the great thing and begins to sell it.  The guy went to the police (the 2nd guys cousin) and tries to get him to stop the theft!  Well, after 3 years and much court cost.  The 2nd guy, closes shop, files bankruptcy, moves 1 door down and starts again.

Haha thanks for the lil story there @builderofcastles - it is a problem - in this case, competition. To only way to get out of it is to actually have a decent monopoly, i.e, bigger firm.
