Summary:

If we want to live in a society in which research informs how we solve the many problems facing humankind, then the results of that research must be freely available. New advances stand on the shoulders of existing ones. From the moon landing to the Human Genome Project, virtually every landmark discovery would have been impossible without access to previous work and the ability to build upon it.
