Debate is raging as regards intellectual property and software. Neither copyright law nor patent law seem to satisfy the requirements of software protection. This legal uncertainty has led to the laws becoming subject to exploitation for vested agendas. Resentment towards inadequacies of laws and practices and their subsequent exploitation is highlighted by emergence of alternative development models, most notably by the open source software model.
