La bataille de Waterloo

(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Francia y el Reino Unido están dando lugar de entrada a la agenda americana de los MONOPOLIOS del software; la FFII (Fundación para una Infraestructura de Información Libre) y Techrights contrarrestan eso.

ALGO está apesta en Francia y este vez no es Barnier, cuyos trucos para cabildear para las patentes de software hemos escrito en muchos[http://techrights.org/2010/11/06/eu-system-unified-wrt-uspto/] anteriores [http://techrights.org/2010/10/28/community-patent-and-barnier/] posts[http://techrights.org/2009/12/18/eu-commission-for-michel-barnier/] durante el último año[http://techrights.org/2011/05/25/peer-to-patent-in-the-uk/]. Francia va a poner en marcha un troll nacional de patentes denuncia el presidente del FFII[http://slashdot.org/submission/1644266/France-to-launch-a-national-patent-troll] (quién es belga y fluente en francés). Mientras que su demanda liga a 3 páginas en francés, su descripción de Slashdot resume todo como sigue:

[zoobab:] Francia está creando un fondo patrocinado por el estado de patentes, FranceBrevets, su foco primario será patrocinar, adquirir patentes de la licencia en el sector de las TIC (lease patentes de software). El fondo de la patente está en la iniciativa del ministro de la investigación, Valérie Pécresse, el ministerio de la industria, de la energía y de la economía digital, Eric Besson. El objetivo primario del fondo es recoger licencias en esas patentes, que ya se ve en Francia como el troll más grande de patentes del país. Francia también está apoyando la patente unitaria europea, que es considerada por muchos en la tentativa final de validar patentes del software en Europa.

FranceBrevets y la patente unitaria europea: una buena oportunidad para los troll de ptatentes, perjudicaría la UE en su totalidad, él observa por separado[http://twitter.com/zoobab/statuses/79638481646788608], explicando [http://twitter.com/zoobab/statuses/79631182966435840] que Francia está creando un fondo para invertir pesadamente en patentes de software (la prioridad es tecnología de información y de comunicación) ; ¿absolutamente desconcertante, no? Lleva a más ambigüedad e incertidumbre para los desarrolladores europeos. Symbian (Nokia) validó una patente del software en el Reino Unido hace algunos años[http://techrights.org/2008/10/09/symbian-breaks-ukipo/] y Alemania hizo cosas peores con un acto con FAT de Microsoft[http://techrights.org/2010/04/23/contradicting-epo-rules/]. Como una persona observó[http://www.iposgoode.ca/2011/06/peer-to-patent-in-the-uk-lost-in-translation/], con respecto a la decisión de Wilcox [1[http://techrights.org/2011/06/01/wilcox-should-learn-from-eu/], 2[http://techrights.org/2011/06/10/transporting-software-patents-to-eu/], 3[http://techrights.org/2011/05/31/nyls-idea-re-swpats-in-uk/], 4[http://techrights.org/2011/05/31/patent-monopolies-in-the-eu/]], el programa piloto Peer to Patent BRITÁNICO comenzará como lo hicieron los E.E.U.U., sin embargo; se centrarán solamente en tecnologías del ordenador. Citación Techrights que dice:

No todos están emocionados por este focus, particularmente hay muchos opuestos a las patentes del software en principio. Por lo menos un grupo discute que no debamos legitimar patentes del software con programas tales como Peer To Patent, para [quienes] el problema es la calidad de las patentes, no las patentes del software en general. Este discusión pudiera probarse especialmente problemático la adaptación del modelo original de los E.E.U.U. a los estados europeos, como el Reino Unido. El artículo 52 de la convención de patente europea (EPC) excluye los programas para las computadoras como tema patentable. La ley BRITÁNICA sobre el tema es confusa, por lo menos; la jurisprudencia reciente parece haber establecido que los programas de computadora que hacen una contribución técnica son patentables – lo qué ésto exige es sin embargo exactamente confuso.

¿Qué está pasando en Europa? Parece estar bajo el mismo ataque americano (traído por los MONOPOLISTAS con ayuda del gobierno) como Nueva Zelandia[http://techrights.org/2011/06/13/intel-for-swpats/] lo está. Como una persona, lo notó en respuesta a twitter[https://twitter.com/nza1/status/80227020465909760]: Usted sabe que nuestro gobierno amistoso con las MULTI-NACIONALES-hará lo que estas le pidan. #PapasFritasConEso?

  1. 3.5 Years Later Gemini Protocol and Geminispace Are Still 100% Community-Controlled

    Community-centric alternatives to the World Wide Web have gained traction; one of them, Gemini Protocol, continues to grow in 2023 and we're pleased to report progress and expansion



  2. Windows Falls to 16% Market Share in India (It was 97% in 2009), Microsoft Layoffs Reach India Too

    This month’s picture from the world’s most populous nation does not look good for Microsoft (it looks good for GNU/Linux); anonymous rumour mills online say that Microsoft isn’t moving to India but is actually firing staff based in India, so it’s a case of shrinking, not offshoring. When even low-paid (much lower salaries) staff is discarded it means things are very gloomy.

  4. Microsoft Has Also Infiltrated the OSI's Board of Directors After Rigged Elections

    Weeks ago we warned that this would happen and for the third or fourth time in 2 years the OSI’s election process broke down; today the Open Source Initiative (OSI) writes: “The polls just closed, the results are in. Congratulations to the returning directors Aeva Black…” (Microsoft employee)

  7. Many More Microsoft Layoffs Later Today

    Yesterday we shared rumours about Microsoft layoffs being planned for later today (there were 3 waves of layoffs so far this year). There are several more people here who say the same. How much noise will Microsoft make in the “media” in order to distract? Will the chaffbot "ChatGPT" help create enough chaff?

  9. Germany's Lobbyists-Infested Government Sponsors the War on Ukraine via the European Patent Office (EPO)

    The chief UPC ‘judge’ is basically seeking to break the law (and violate constitutions, conventions etc.) to start a kangaroo court while dodging real courts, just like Vladimir Putin does



  10. [Meme] The Meme That Team UPC (the Collusion to Break the European Laws, for Profit) Threats to Sue Us For

    António Campinos and Team UPC are intimidating people who simply point out that the Unified Patent Court (UPC) is illegal and Klaus Grabinksi, shown above, strives to head a de facto kangaroo court in violation of constitutions and conventions (the UK does not and cannot ratify; Ireland hasn’t even held a referendum on the matter)



  11. Microsoft is Sacking People Every Month This Year, Even Managers (While Sponsored Media Produces Endless Chatbot Chaff)

    Lots of Microsoft layoffs lately and so-called ‘journalists’ aren’t reporting these; they’re too busy running sponsored puff pieces for Microsoft, usually fluff along the “hey hi” (AI) theme



  12. 3 Months Late Sirius 'Open Source' Finally Deletes Us From the Fraudulent 'Meet the Team' Page (But Still Lists Many People Who Left Years Ago!)

    Amid fraud investigations the management of Sirius ‘Open Source’ finally removed our names from its “Meet the Team” page (months late); but it left in the page about half a dozen people who left the company years ago, so it’s just lying to its clients about the current situation



  13. Amid Fraud at Sirius 'Open Source' CEO Deletes His Recent (This Month) Past With the Company

    Not only did the Sirius ‘Open Source’ CEO purge all mentions of Sirius from his Microsoft LinkedIn account; he’s racing against the clock as crimes quickly become a legal liability



  14. Web Survey Shows Microsoft Falling Below 15% Market Share in Africa, Only One Minuscule African Nation Has Windows Majority

    A Web survey that measured Microsoft Windows at 97% in Africa (back in 2010) says that Windows has become rather small and insignificant; the Microsoft-sponsored mainstream media seems to be ignoring this completely, quite likely by intention...



  15. Rumours of More Microsoft Layoffs Tomorrow (Including Managers!), Probably Azure Again (Many Azure Layoffs Every Year Since 2020)

    Amazon is laying off AWS staff and Microsoft has been laying off Azure staff for 3 years already, including this year, so it seems like the “clown computing” bubble is finally bursting



  16. [Meme] EPO's Management Brainstorm

    The story behind a misleading slogan told above



  17. The Photo Ops Festival of the Funky President António Campinos and Revolt From the Patent Examiners Whom He Perpetually Oppresses

    European Patents are being granted for no reason other than application and renewal fees, awarding European monopolies to companies that aren't even European (only about a third are actually European); staff of the EPO is fed up as it regards or views all this as an extreme departure from the EPO's mission (and it's also outright illegal)

  19. Back Doors Proponent Microsoft Infiltrates Panels That Write the Security Regulations, Press Fails to Point Out the Obvious

    Cult tactics and classic entryism serve Microsoft again, stacking the panels and basically writing policy (CISA). As an associate explained it, citing this new example, Stanford “neglects to point out the obvious fact that Microsoft is writing its own regulations.”

  22. Standard Life (Phoenix Group Holdings): Three Weeks to Merely Start Investigating Pension Fraud (and Only After Repeated Reminders From the Fraud's Victims)

    As the phonecall above hopefully shows (or further elucidates), Standard Life leaves customers in a Kafkaesque situation, bouncing them from one person to another person without actually progressing on a fraud investigation



  23. Standard Life Paper Mills in Edinburgh

    Standard Life is issuing official-looking financial papers for companies that then use that paperwork to embezzle staff



  24. Pension Fraud Investigation Not a High Priority in Standard Life (Phoenix Group Holdings)

    The 'Open Source' company where I worked for nearly 12 years embezzled its staff; despite knowing that employees were subjected to fraud in Standard Life's name, it doesn't seem like Standard Life has bothered to investigate (it has been a fortnight already; no progress is reported by management at Standard Life)

  28. An Update on Sirius 'Open Source' Pensiongate: It's Looking Worse Than Ever

    It's starting to look more and more like pension providers in the UK, including some very major and large ones, are aiding criminals who steal money from their workers under the guise of "pensions"



  29. Services and Users TRApped in Telescreen-Running Apps

    TRApp, term that lends its name to this article, is short for "Telescreen-Running App". It sounds just like "trap". Any similarity is not purely coincidental.
