In a corporation, all ideas are shared products. This leads to things that are utterly alien to the academic mentality, e.g., within a corporation there’s no such thing as “plagiarism”: what academics call “plagiarism,” corporations call “leveraging our intellectual assets.”

And 99% of what academics call “plagiarism” is just total bullshit. I mean, almost all of the time who would even want to parrot your bunk-ass prose or ideas? I could never be an academic, for so many reasons.
