By doing what?  You think the USA is an ally?   Since NAFTA they have plundered Canada, broken the agreement scores of times and lost all but one or two of their appeals under arbitration.  Now the Trump thump.  

Where do you get your ideas?!  There could be whatever joint IP agreement amongst these countries as our imaginations could put together.  Do you not think that these other countries could quickly catch up and pass the USA in regard to communication technology if we took the initiative?  Why have we abandoned that field to the USA???   In fact many of their experts are stolen from Canada, Europe and Asia.  The USA education process and standard is the same as it was when they stole Eurasian rocket experts in 1945.  As one American leader said, "We disparage the kinds of education that makes our cities and weapons while bowing to the kinds that lead to dependency like philosophy.  As a result we have neither pipes nor theories that hold water.  You worship the wrong idol !
