The Calorie Man, by Paolo Bacigalupi. Instead of drug-sniffing dogs, this tomorrow has dogs engineered to sniff out unlicensed IP. No petroleum, but still lots of licensing: Lawyers, like cockroaches, will survive the apocalypse.
Has anyone done a bibliography of IP-related sf stories? Not the standard cyberpunk/Cory Doctorow stuff where IP is floating around in the background -- that can either be interesting or annoying, depending -- but ones where the plot turns on IP law.
