Summary: It seems increasingly likely that the endgame is elimination of patent scrutiny (patent applications presumed legitimate and enshrined as monopolies, granted to those who access the most expensive law firms or have in-house legal departments); examiners need to fight back to justify their very existence or their purpose!
LATER today we’ll publish part 4 of a series entitled “The EPO’s Race to the Bottom”. It’s a reminder to the general public — not to EPO insiders (they are already well aware!) — that the EPO is crushing its very own. The people who do all the actual work, under increasingly bad conditions and with lower compensation/remunerations, are only being ‘rewarded’ with further punishment; the only ones to benefit are rich monopolies/ists and their law firms/front groups.
The first three parts of the series are:
- The EPO’s Race to the Bottom — Part I — From Bad to Worse
- The EPO’s Race to the Bottom — Part II — “Playing People Off Against Each Other is Not the Way We Want to Go Forward!”
- The EPO’s Race to the Bottom — Part III — “The King is Naked” (a Fake Financial Shortage and ‘Missing’ — or Plundered — Billions)
The next part, “An Assault on Pensioners,” will be published later today. The video above is an expression of my personal views and interpretation of this whole situation, which may seem grim (I think it is realistic, but time will tell). I’m not new to this topic and I’m not just ‘passing by’. I’ve been writing about patents for nearly 20 years. █
