Someone mentioned websites where you can register your copyrights and my
point is not to do this. So, yes, there is definitely an argument to be
made. I will not get tempted to discuss trademarks.
I said there are patents for algorithms. I didn't write they're easy to
defend and that's not the subject of discussion here. Stay on the
subject, Lynn.

Lynn, you twist my words. I don't like that.
I didn't say "do nothing". I said: you can do a few things
that don't cost you money and those copyright registration
websites don't provide you with any additional protection
whatsoever, so don't pay for their services.
You are also creating an argument where there wasn't one. Take a happy
break, its Friday ;-)
At least with copyright (within the scope of US copyright), once something
is fixed in medium the law applies. You do not have to do anything else to
be afforded protections under the law - therefore, 'do nothing' because you
are covered. If you want enhanced protection under the law, then you
register.
Trademarks work sort of in a similar way, though I wouldn't not rely on
their similarities without doing research.
Patents are a glue-huffing, frog in a blender nightmare. Get help.
