She's admitted on videos that she re-joined the Sea Org under false pretenses to deliberately spy & steal intellectual property from the church. Regardless, how one feels about the cult of Scamatology, that is still criminal behavior. She's not at all smart posting videos claiming she knew she had stolen documents.
What I find curious is that OSA had her sign affidavits under the name she used to enter the 2nd time versus her known legal name.
I am curious. What exactly does this "intellectual property" umbrella cover and what does it not cover?
Are Flag Orders considered to be "intellectual property"? Are Int Executive Directives considered to be IP?
Are OODs that Hubbard wrote in 1967, and which regges have copies of on Hard Sell, considered to be "IP"?
As far as I know it is entirely legal to quote sections of other "works". For example if a critic web site quoted sections of Sea Org publications that gave instructions about how staff were not allowed to create friendships with non-Sea Org staff, can anybody get in trouble? As far as I know, "no", so why would making copies of such things be "illegal" (if they are NOT distributed for profit)?
Would making a copy of the "Sea Org Hygiene Course" be "stealing intellectual property"?
How can the world ever learn the TRUTH about all the sordid details of what the Sea Org is, and how it does what it does, if it is protected behind this pretentious curtain of "intellectual property"?
Does the Church of Scientology actually try to say that ALL "inner office communications", including ALL directives and orders of any kind having to do with the Sea Org are "confidential", and NEVER allowed to be copied and published outside the organization? Can it actually say and do that? And thus keep its entire "operation" SECRET? I am sure that they would LIKE to be able to do that, but can they?
For example, sure, the details of some programming for a software package by Microsoft is "protected", but would the inter-office memos on how to conduct the company staff meeting and approve vacation time also be considered "protected"?
All of this information about how Hubbard, Miscavige and INT orders the staff to function (explained in detail in various SO issues) has little or nothing to do with the "product" (which as far as I know is what is actually "protected").
Any lawyers out there?
