thanks that made it crystal clear here! At least here in Germany, copyright lasts 70 years after you are dead. Afaik some countries in the world do not have the option to patent any software at all nor algorithms.
You said in your video software expresses ideas, functions, methods of a how product works so if someone reversed engineered my software it would explain all the to them they then could use a patent to steal from the person who thought of it first so a copyright on source code of a function is protected from some one else trying to copy and use unless you would patents to override someone's else's protected intellectual property it's considered an invasion of space and ones right to hold protected property
Copyright laws says that it protects intellectual property which is included in software copy rights that has to include functions and methods as the intellectual parts of the software
This guy is absolutely wrong, a software copyright is not a copy right of expression. It's a copy right of intellectual property because software is built up of methods and functions the way he is explaining it is someone could patent over someone else's copyrights and steal someone's copyright by entrenching around someone else's already working product software is an asset that shows already how these intellectual parts work that's reverse engineering is illegal on copy righted products
