EPO Does the Unlawful While Leveraging Women's Rights as an Opportunistic Form of Disguise

Summary: The EPO reaffirms its commitment to injustice and exploitation of human/women's rights causes (for shallow Public Relations stunts)

THERE must be some serious conflict or scandal at the EPO judging by the fact that over the past few hours the EPO's "news" section had thrown into it no less than three puff pieces (sometimes the EPO doesn't publish even one in a whole month!). One is an abuse against disabled people (warning: epo.org link), another piggybacks women's rights, and (warning: epo.org link) another one (warning: epo.org link) shows that just like Benoît Battistelli, the criminal who ran the Office for 8 years, António Campinos gets his way by proactively besieging judges.



These judges have openly admitted, even repeatedly, that they lack true autonomy. A recent decision indirectly confirmed that those judges are still lacking independence (EPO management shut the lid on this question and bombarded its "news" section to distract the media). So they're being pressured to allow European software patents, even though the law or the EPC says otherwise. As do European courts, Parliament etc. (not to mention software developers themselves; they loathe these patents).

The EPO's megaphones have already written about this. Of course no mention of the autonomy issues; they suck up to the corrupt officials in return for favours...

"This is a recipe for ongoing disaster."This is just more of the same old EPO we saw under Battistelli. No dialogue with the union, no independence for judges (separation of powers), just more and more corruption being disguised with a thin coat or broad brush of pseudo-feminism (at the EPO women need to sleep with powerful men to get promoted).

This is a recipe for ongoing disaster. The EPO insiders know it. They tell us about it. Moments ago another report was published about European Patents being tossed out. This is how the EPO can rapidly become obsolete.

A reader of ours told us that "if you have 90 min free for watching a movie, I suggest you watch this one."

It's a movie called Corporate. "It is about a big company," the reader noted, "a human resources manager and an employee who commits suicide. Does it remind you of something? Yes! Me too! But there is a big difference with the EPO: in this movie, many instances are allowed to enter the premises of the company and to carry [out] an investigation. At the end, the big boss is convicted... The reality is far worse than the fiction."

Same thing happened, belatedly, in France's largest telecom company (France Télécom), which saw a "suicide wave" after Battistelli's friend (Breton) had messed around with it. In the case of the EPO's judges, remember that their colleague was bullied and defamed so badly (by Battistelli and his Croatian bulldog) that he ended up hospitalised. The humiliation and the financial damage (lawsuits are very expense) left him in ruin. So how are we supposed to expect his colleagues to say no to António Campinos, more so during a public health crisis and an attack on EPO pensioners? Human resources or just cannon fodder?
