EPO was so proud of Theranos...

WHEN it comes to fighting for justice at the EPO, the Government of Germany isn't an ally but an obstacle. The same can be said about EU authorities, unlike some Bavarian politicians whom we named here before.

"Remember that some Theranos patents have already been weaponised against European scientists trying to tackle COVID-19."The Government of Germany must realise that the EPO gradually becomes a liability to the country's image worldwide. Its push for the UPC, even at the ministry of injustice (adding insult to injury), was never helpful; as if laws and constitutions -- set aside the interests of ordinary German citizens -- do not matter. We've already been "taking stock" of Germany's role in enabling EPO abuses and "Germany is protecting EPO," one reader told us on Friday, actually quoting a high-profile person. We're working on getting a video of that.

"Germany is protecting EPO" is a "statement from David Martin in his recent speeches about COVID patents," a reader recalls. "I could try to find back his statement in a video."

That would be very useful and also interesting to EPO insiders. We'll try to get that as a video (in open/free format). Remember that some Theranos patents have already been weaponised against European scientists trying to tackle COVID-19.

"What will it take for the Government of Germany to finally cross the threshold where EPO crackdowns are seen as more beneficial than cover-up?""In case you missed it," EPO insiders have told us, "Theranos fraud trial has started in the US," and media coverage can be found here and here (Bezos Post). An ordinary observer would not be aware of the EPO's role in all this. "As someone asked back in 2018," the insiders stress, "what was the role of the patent offices in all of this?" (quoting this)

We wrote a lot about this issue back then (well ahead of the trial). "Here is some paid advertising from the EPO on CNN (from 2015)," insiders remind us. So EPO budget was used to promote or legitimise an elaborate fraud.

What will it take for the Government of Germany to finally cross the threshold where EPO crackdowns are seen as more beneficial than cover-up? ⬆
