I realise this is not how it works, but I have independently imagined/invented so many things that already exist, and I should get some small credit. Like, yeah I know there's like a 'main' credited inventor, but I also thought of the Internet and Facebook independently so someone should give me a million pounds. I think it's only reasonable. Yesterday I invented Westworld and the creators of the recent series were paid $30m a year and it wasn't even an original IP.
