Summary: The corruption at the EPO would not be complete without bribes, which seem to have spilled over to the EU and corrupted European media

THIS morning's video is an hour long, so it took 5 hours just to encode and compress (the process is automated but very CPU-intensive). It speaks about EIA, which is promoted again by the EPO's management. EIA isn't what it claims to be (rewarding and nominating "geniuses" as they call it); it's a celebration of patents, including European software patents, and it is a conduit of bribes for host nations, bribes for media, distraction for the media, and occasional promotion of frauds like Theranos (advertised at the expense of the Office with its allegedly 'low' budget).



"It talks about this morning's "Top Jobs at EUIPO for “Compliant” Baltic Officials?" -- the latest of 20 parts..."The video then speaks about the rigging by Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos, who basically seem to be using EU jobs as conduit of bribes as well. It talks about this morning's "Top Jobs at EUIPO for “Compliant” Baltic Officials?" -- the latest of 20 parts:
