In this paper I will argue that intellectual property rights are unjustifiable. I shall demonstrate not only that they would violate tangible property rights but also that last-resort utilitarian arguments in favour of them are inconclusive at best. The paper will assume the form of a sort of imaginary debate where the arguments by IP advocates (mostly utilitarian ones) will be anticipated and replied. Furthermore, the paper shall include a word of concession saying that, if anything, there are better reasons (however feeble) to protect works of arts than inventions.
