Summary: The EPO is taking Europe for a wild ride; Everything is a vehicle for the very same agenda, with nobody left to hold it accountable or ask any tough questions… (even the media is in the EPO's back pocket or back seat)

Microsoft GitHub Exposé — Part XXI — Rumours About How Microsoft Plans to Actually Make Money (Not Losses) From GitHub
GitHub is not 'free hosting' but a ticking time bomb, a proprietary platform looking to entrap its users (serfs) inside yet more proprietary platforms (for Microsoft to become their oppressive master)

[Meme] Fluffy Staff
EPO President António Campinos is failing to ‘contain’ the media after less than 4 years at the Office, just like Benoît Battistelli around 2014
Kluwer Patent Blog Belatedly Gives EPO Staff a Voice
There are at least 2 bloggers — if not 3 people — at Kluwer Patent Blog who air grievances of EPO staff; in addition, many of the comments there blast EPO management and Team UPC and it helps change the perceptions long shaped by bribes and blackmail from EPO management
[Meme] Fluffy President
Prepare for more puff pieces and fluff from President Fluffinos, who has commandeered the EPO‘s official Web site for self-serving whitewash and promotion of illegal agenda like European software patents and a kangaroo court to approve those (UPC)
Blaming Patent Examiners Who Respect the Law
The latest comments here are quite revealing; the EPO not only breaks the law with impunity but it also challenges the very legal system (like courts) with total impunity; Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos are, in that regard, no better than Putin, just more temperamental

Visual Proof That Twitter Very Likely Faked Its Magnitude the Moment Musk et al (KSA, Ellison and so on) Wanted to Buy
There's a very compelling case for the allegation that Twitter is defrauding shareholders and participants in the platform; Twitter is a lot smaller than it used to be (fewer people are actively involved), it is losing money, and it is so desperate to be acquired that it's shamelessly faking traffic

EPO Celebrates Software Patents Again, Dubbing Them 'Hey Hi' (AI) and '4IR'
The ludicrous state of the EPO is demonstrated by yesterday’s puff piece about “four million” (merely requests for monopoly in Europe; most come from outside Europe) and L’Oréal, which claims to have “invented” something that was already done in the 1990s if not the 1980s
[Meme] EPO's Monkey Business: Lowering the Patent Examination Bar
As we shall show in a moment, EPO President António Campinos has lowered the quality of patents and applications; sooner or later he might outsource the job to ‘livestock’

Heads of Patent Offices Are Immune to Coronavirus
The overconfident chiefs of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and EPO might love speaking about COVID-19 (in relation to patents), but they do not take it seriously themselves

The General Consultative Committee of the EPO Exposes a Disaster and a Lack of Genuine Dialogue
The General Consultative Committee (GCC) at the EPO deals with unlawful proposals from António Campinos (he’s happy to violate laws, constitutions, protocols, conventions, just like Benoît Battistelli did) and once again the abuses by managers is covered up; it’s as if the Office is run by unaccountable gangsters who arrogantly curse at everyone whilst insisting they’re the nicest people ever
The Latest Letter to Josef Kratochvìl and the Heads of Delegation of the Administrative Council of the European Patent Organisation
