Re: Trade Secrets & the Internet
the act of posting such material on the net may itself be "misappropriation."  
 
It is - the person posting the trade-secret information to the public domain without owning the right to do so has committed an actionable act.  
 
I'm no lawyer, but I expect that even if you buy a Dumble amp ninteenth hand, the design and execution of the circuit are trade secrets. Trade secrets can have a separate life from copyrights and patents.  
 
Jack, since you seem to have the ability to do legal research and not go blind, I'd appreciate it if you'd tell me how and where I'm wrong. (please)
