Derived information

Derived information, the fecund fruits of the receiver’s own creative juice and analytical energy, is in no sense proprietary to the disclosing party[1], and may indeed be as commercially sensitive to the receiving party as the material the disclosing party gave, and on which it was based, it in the first place. Think Paul’s middle eight about having a shave and catching the bus in A Day in the Life. We are in danger of getting into the jurisprudential wisdom of treating intellectual endeavour as if it were tangible property - but let’s not go there just not[2]

  1. If the disclosed information ever was proprietary in the first place — if it doesn’t qualify as intellectual property it isn’t, or course.
