In other words, it is illegal but the government does not actively seek offenders, putting the responsibility on the owner of the works to press charges on a case-by-case basis.

The Merchant Republics wrote:Generally speaking we don't have intellectual property laws, however there are notable exceptions.
-Cases of clear plagiarism or copy of an intellectual work which is not properly credited to it's original creator
-Cases of fraud where a product is sold as a work of an artist but is actually an unlicensed pirate. It is however perfectly legal to sell if one makes the customer knows that they are buying/receiving a pirated work.
-Cases whereby the attributed creation of one artist is actually found Conveyancing Camden to have been stolen directly from another, such as an inventor writing up plans for a flying machine and his lab assistant stealing the designs to produce himself then claiming to have invented it. Exception if the product is innovated on to a reasonable degree.
In most other cases intellectual property does not apply as it strictly violates Laissez-Faire constitutional charter.

Pirates who steal money from the original author are likely to get fined and/or whipped, with prison as a last resort.
Band names are protected, unless the band clearly got it's name on another planet and is just on tour and not staying for more then three months in every two years.
The only known Deception openly on Vallermoore is the priest Fire Eater-if someone tried to copy his stuff and he didn't like it they would most likely face covert Decepticon blaster fire. Given that he is a priest though, if they were merely trying to spread the faith of Megatronism and doing it wrongly by mistake he'd most likely try and explain the right way to go about it first. Covert Decepticons who were inventors or writers would most likely covertly blast the culprit as such is the Decepticon Way.
