Re: Monopolies are made by government and they can easily be broken by them too

NDAs

NDA's are civil contracts matters, unless as sometimes happens, a signing party to them is a govt, then elements could be criminal ie: "top secrets" (wherein free speech should morally apply thus neutering even those cases back to a civil matter, but they aren't because sheeple execute whatever govt says, so some elements could be criminal). Patent infringement usually isn't a crime itself. Copyright and trademark / counterfeit can be. All dependant on jurisdiction.

Fundamentally, governments

are redundant, therefore a needless expense.
