das hat der Oberste Gerichtshof in Japan entschieden, ein bemerkenswertes Urteil:
That country’s Supreme Court has ruled employees who invent products are entitled to the intellectual property rights. That hasn’t been the case over there, where the team is usually rewarded over the individual…. The ruling could signal a shift in Japan’s traditional respect for teamwork over individual accomplishments. Earlier this year, Toshiba settled an employee patent lawsuit for more than half-a-million dollars.
Irgendwie bin ich mir sicher, dass die japanischen Mitarbeiter demnächst Knebelverträge unterschreiben werden, was das Thema angeht.
