IAM 'Magazine', an Adjunct or Megaphone to the Battistelli Regime, Called 'Independent' by the EPO and Used for 'Quality' Propaganda

Battistelli and IAM



Summary: High-quality propaganda from Battistelli, who is attempting to bury bad news about rapidly-declining patent quality at the EPO (due to his own policies)

THE EPO is run by a truly incompetent person who thinks that he can simply buy or pay for propaganda. Apparently he does not realise the 'allergy' scientists have for that...



"How much lower will the EPO stoop/sink to prop up the illusion of "quality"?"IAM, which is in bed with the EPO, again rises as Battistelli's propaganda of choice, with the latest news [sic] headline, "Independent [sic] Survey confirms [sic] EPO No.1 for quality" [sic] (don't laugh, the EPO was even pinging IAM about it, as though it was winking at IAM).

How much lower will the EPO stoop/sink to prop up the illusion of "quality"?

Here is the direct link for those who want to risk tracking by the EPO's management (we understand that many of our readers are past and present EPO staff).

"The EPO used to be fantastic!"Shame on IAM for remaining little more than a Battistelli mouthpiece. The corresponding 'articles' from them are [1, 2] (there may be more, but we're still catching up after 3 weeks of absence).

As a side note, based on this new tweet, EPO staff keeps fleeing from the Battistelli regime, which is unable to find talent and is begging for some more job applications (not a new conundrum).

"Even the staff representatives warn prospective workers about the dangers of joining the EPO."The EPO wrote: "Are you an engineer/ scientist interested in joining an international team at the forefront of technology?"

Well, so don't join the EPO. The EPO used to be fantastic! I myself admitted that. But what became of the EPO is an utter disgrace at many levels. Even the staff representatives warn prospective workers about the dangers of joining the EPO.
