Sumarior: Debates acerca de la UPC estan siendo peleados por profesionales de software (entidades prácticantes) y elementos PARÁSITICOS como los abogados de patentes.

LLa OEP frecuentemente otorga patentes de software, a pesar de la prohibición de estas en Europa. De acuerdo a un tweet de Benjamin Herrion esta mañana, el Padre del Software Libre, Richard Stallman, dijo que las patentes de software regresan con la Corte Unitaria de Patentes. Hemos estado diciendo esto por largo tiempo, pero algunas personas rechazan aceptarlo, a pesar de mucha evidencia o profesionales de leyes quienes estan diciendo lo mismo. Esto NO ES una teoría o una mera hipótesis; es una realidad.



"De acuerdo a un tweet de Benjamin Herrion esta mañana, el Padre del Software Libre, Richard Stallman, dijo que las patentes de software regresan con la Corte Unitaria de Patentes."Otra cosa que la UPC ayudará a traer a Europa es un ELEMENTO PARÁSITICO DEL EXTRANJERO, MAYORMENTE DE LOS ESTADOS UNIDOS, ya comenzo asuceder. La semana pasada, o hace algunos días, los abogados de patentes advirtieron que traería trolls de patentes a Europa (no los llaman trolls, sólo entidades €¨no-prácticantes y entidades de aserción de patentes€¨). Otros abogados de patentes todavía promocional duro por la UPC y se remarcan de acuerdo a ello. Los medios de abogados públicamente se enorgullecen (e.g. en Twitter) secciones enteras acerca de ello. Tratan de capitalizar por cambio sin importarles el daño. Este sitio dijo: €¨Finlandia rectifica el Acuerdo por la UPC y su Protocolo, el Reino Unido se alista por la rectificación con un poquito de complejidad legal, las publicaciones de la UPC estan abiertas a todos y sus €´mejoras€´ al IT sistem de ella (como si ya existiera y sólo detalles menores quedan por decidir).

Bueno, firmas de leyes en Londres y los medios de abogados del area pueden tratar de darnos la impresión que la UPC es inevitable e incluso que es buena, pero es un HORRIBLE ERROR y traería a la UE en linea con los Estados Unidos (el más notorio nefasto sistema de patentes), donde la gente es arrastrada a Texas por juicios acerca de patentes de sofware (en cortes que tradicionalmente son amigables a las patentes de sofware).

“El personal de la Oficina Europea de Patentes se declararon en huelga acusando a la organización de la corrupción: en concreto, el maquillamiento de los estándares para las patentes con el fin de hacer más dinero.

"Una de las formas en que la OEP ha hecho esto es mediante la emisión de patentes de software en desafío al tratado que lo prohibió."

--Richard Stallman
