The Fall of the UPC - Part VIII: Team UPC Celebrates Death, Not Life
Team UPC plays psychological games now; it is trying to twist or spin its defeat as good news and something to be almost celebrated; it is really as illogical (and pathetic) as that sounds

When Your 'Business' is Just 'Patent Portfolio'
Hoarding loads of patents may seem impressive, but eating them to survive is impossible if not impermissible
LOT Network is a One-Man (Millionaire's) Operation and Why This Should Alarm You
The ugly story of Open Invention Network (OIN) and LOT; today we take a closer look at LOT and highlight a pattern of 'cross-pollination' (people in both OIN and LOT, even at the same time)
Faking Production With Fake Patents on Software
The EPO with its illegal guidelines (in violation of the EPC) can carry on churning out millions of fake patents that European courts would only waste time on and small companies be blackmailed with (they cannot afford legal battles)
With the Unified Patent Court (UPC) Out of the Way Focus Will Return to EPO Corruption
Expect the European Patent Office (EPO) to receive more negative attention now that the ’cause’ of UPC is lost and there’s no point pretending things are rosy

Still Work in Progress: Getting Those 2,851 Pages of Police Report About Arrest for Pedophilia in Home of Bill Gates
It’s extremely difficult to get those police records, which were requested exactly one day before the media started attacking Richard Stallman (associating him with pedophiles based on a deliberate distortion)

The Fall of the UPC - Part VII: Lies and Revisionism About the Reasons for the UPC's Ultimate Demise (to Leave the Door Open for More Failed Attempts)

Linux Foundation Became Anti-Linux, Run by Microsoft People to Serve Microsoft's Agenda
Microsoft is taking over the bodies of healthy projects, infecting the hosts in order for them to become slaves of the proprietary parasite; there's still no (known) cure, but we're familiar with the symptoms
Microsoft Continues to Attack and Steal From the Open Source/Free Software Communities
Microsoft cannot be trusted and there's no "new Microsoft," as another fairly new story serves to show
Targeted Attack Leveraging FSF Servers
Targeted by a determined and persist perpetrator, I've received over 20,000 E-mails. And the weapon of choice was the FSF's infrastructure, remotely misused against yours truly.
If We Weren't Silencing Founders, Critics and People We Just Don't Like

The Fall of the UPC - Part VI: Drowning in Material
We're starting to see few good reports on the subject of UPC being rejected by the constitutional court of Germany; we also have a rapidly-growing 'buffer' of rather blatant examples of disinformation (which we'll tackle as best we can)
FFII: EU Software Patent Court Stopped by Constitutional Court, Patent Industry Will Try Again
The third attempt to validate software patents in Europe via a central patent court (UPC) has been stopped by the German Constitutional Court. The Unified Patent Court (UPC) would have given the keys of the kingdoms to the patent industry, and the last word over software patentability. FFII predict that the patent industry will continue to push for an UPC v2.0.

The Fall of the UPC - Part V: Pretending That Opponents of the Unitary Patent Simply Don't Exist
It's difficult if not totally impossible to find articles from impartial journalists -- let alone from actual scientists -- about the failure of the Unitary Patent and UPC Agreement (UPCA)
The Fall of the UPC - Part IV: IP Kat Became Just a Team UPC Megaphone
Willem Hoyng (Drafting Committee of the UPC's Rules of Procedure) is 'writing' IP Kat right now; has the blog turned into the very thing it fought to expose?
The Fall of the UPC - Part III: Pure Comedy From Watchtroll and Its UPC Lobbyists From Managing IP
Two megaphones of European Patent Office (EPO) management and boosters of Team Battistelli, namely Managing IP and Watchtroll, want us to think that UPC is merely “delayed” and that acts of overt corruption can be described as “passed unanimously by the Second Chamber of the Bundestag”
