    LEGAL BRIEF

    Max Oppenheimer

    By Max Stul Oppenheimer, Esq.

    Purchasing a product gives you broad rights to do with it as you please.

    Those rights are not unlimited. For example, you can’t drive your new Ferrari through town at 120 mph; you can’t use your new hammer to smash anyone’s thumb but your own.

    Those rights are also limited by two legal constraints: you cannot infringe on someone else’s intellectual property rights, and you cannot use the product in a way you promised not to by entering into a contract to that effect.
