> Defending your __________ from copies and clones

Fill in the blank, and the same lessons apply.

Any idea, project, business, app, website, article, podcast, TV show, media production, procedure, product, art, creation, etc are frequently copied and cloned. And he's right, ultimately nobody cares.

Sometimes a copy or clone is better than an original. Sometimes a copy or clone is much worse, but ends up successful because of positioning, luck, marketing, or savvy.

Perhaps it's better to think of the risk of being copied or cloned as part of the risk of business and creation. It just comes with the territory.
