    When corporations dabble in philosophy, you know they’re trying to muddy the waters and skirt an ethical issue. It’s not a genuine inquiry going on here; it’s a “whatever argument serves the bottom line” situation.

    I guess there’s no such thing as intellectual property either, when you really think about it. Hence nothing wrong with me making and selling pirated samsung phones.

        If you’re prominent enough and can afford to pay for the lawyers, you can assert ownership of your own likeness, yes.

        That either is necessary is a travesty, though.
