No you missing the point; the collective name "Intellectual Property" doesn't make any sense because an idea is not property in any sense. At most copyright as a control is an tributary of power not one of having and belonging. As for grouping copyrights with trademarks and patents as in the term IP, well that's just ridiculous to begin with since trademarks and patents are vastly different things for different reasons and with different responsibilities and provisions for the general public; all three things are not property since they are not owned to have and to hold but are controlled through the use of social devices which provide a balance between the sharing of ideas, the sharing of inventions and the protection of names.

And I have put things under GPL (programmer), Creative Commons and Public Domain.
