Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 449.

I was interviewed by Logan Hertz, of Hazeltine LLC, about attempts by the Nelson Nash Institute, they of the poorly-named “Infinite Banking” concept, to use trademark to bully competitors. I discuss the general problem with IP and then apply it to trademark, and provide suggestions as to more “ethical” ways of using trademark and IP in an IP-world. See also Logan’s LinkedIn post.
