Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The software program embedded in the figurines is a type of intellectual property, which refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols or designs. It is important for Hudson to protect their intellectual property from piracy in order to maintain their market share and profits. Copyright, trademark, and local content are not the best choices as they do not appropriately describe the software program in question.
