"Se cree que ls monopolios de patentes impulsan la innovación, pero que en realidad impiden el progreso de la ciencia e innovación, dijo Stiglitz. La "maraña de patentes," actual en la que cualquier persona que escribe un programa de software con éxito es demandado por supuesta infracción de patentes, pone de relieve el fracaso del sistema de propiedad intelectual para fomentar la innovación, dijo."

--IP Watch on Professor Joseph Stiglitz



Sumario: Microsoft ha convertido a Nokia en un troll de patentes que ahora ataca a Linux y Android.

Microsoft ha convertido Nokia en un anti-Adroid/Linux troll de patentes, como se esperaba. €¿Está alguién sorprendido? Preveímos esto desde el principio. Asi como otros (incluso aquellos que Microsoft pago por €´reportajes€´).

Como Florian Muller lo puso esta mañana: €¨Como lo sospeché, el pacto de patentes de 2013 Nokia-Samsung esta lejos de ser comprehensivo: litigación todavía una posibilidad€¨ (en aquel entonces él todavía era cercano a Microsoft).

Para citar el blog de Muller: €¨La realidad que muchas de las aserciones de patentes de Nokia contra HTC fallaron (aunque HTC fue forzado al final a pagar por licencias en cualquier términos) puede hacer que prospectivos licenciadores sientan que pueden probar suerte en la corte.

€¨El próximo anuncio de Nokia-Samsung, cuando este sea dado, será probablemente un comunicado €¨pescado o carnada€¨. No hablarán por siempre. En algún momento se pondrán de acuerdo o Nokia los enjuiciará. Por mi parte recomendaría a Samsung (si me lo preguntaran, obviamente no lo harán) que no sobrepaguen.€¨

"Microsoft también pasó patentes de Nokia a trolles de patentes como MOSAID (ahora llamada Conversant)."€¨Así que €¿Microsoft ama a Linux, si? Por ello destruyeron Nokia después que Nokia se €´atrevió€´ a ser uno de los mayores contribuyentes de Linux (casi numero uno). Microsoft también pasó patentes de Nokia a trolles de patentes como MOSAID (ahora llamada Conversant).

El reporte que todos van a citar en los próximos dis es este. El Wall Street Journal escribió: €¨Nokia Corp espera ganar más de 1 billón de dollares en cash por su portafolio de propiedad intelectual en los próximos tres años, incluyendo las ganancias de su pacto con Samsung Electronics Co. firmado hace más de dos años.€¨

Aparentemente, Nokia quiere mucho más dinero que esto. €¨NOKIA ES UN TROLL DE PATENTES ahora, extorsionó 1 Billon de dolares de Samsung,€¨ escribió el presidente de la FFII (Fundación para una Infraestructura de Información Libre) esta mañana. Revisaremos esta materia más adelante (hay muchos más urgentes temas que cubrir ahora).

"Microsoft está pidiendo a la gente a pagar por las patentes, pero no van a decir cuáles son. Si un tipo entra en su tienda y dice: "Es un barrio peligroso, €¿por qué no me pagas 20 dólares y me aseguraré de que estés bien," eso es ilegal. eS CRIMEN ORGANIZADO."
