António Campinos Wants to Undo His Father's Legacy for Several More Years, Spreading Corruption Across Europe and the World

Summary: The so-called 'Mafia' at the EPO (the staff of the EPO calls it "the Mafia") doesn't want to let go; perhaps in an act of cover-up -- basically ensuring nobody outside the Mafia gets access to checks and balances -- there's already an approach for the Government of Portugal to cement a second term for the controversial Frenchman (whose father had come from Portugal and stayed in France to dodge political persecution)

THE low blow to Alison Brimelow [1, 2] is the succession by the same sort of Mafia she had warned about and had personally suffered from (she later stepped down, almost understandably, leaving the EPO without leadership for quite some time).



"The future of Europe is at stake because EPO corruption is like a cancer that spreads far beyond the Office and has already infested the Commission."That Benoît Battistelli ruined the EPO for 8 years is bad enough; what if António Campinos is allowed to do the same? We might soon be in an agonising scenario where in a period of 25 years more than 85% of the time the EPO's President was in effect French. Is this "diversity"? But it's not even about nationality but about a cabal conspiring to break the law for personal gain, mostly for the benefit of litigation (at the expense of science, which Team UPC doesn't exercise; it's all about lawsuits or doing to the courts what they did to the EPO, i.e. to examination guidelines -- nowadays rendered a production line or rubber-stampers, beholden to coup plotters instead of the EPC).

This coming weekend we plan to say a lot more about patents. The state of news about patents is beyond a farce. The very same firms that hijacked -- albeit by proxy -- the EPO (they also want to do the same to courts) have taken over more than 90% of what one finds in the so-called 'media'. This leads to a state of "alternative realities", imposed by an echo chamber wherein litigation lobbyists preach to their choir, mentally masturbating to the tune of intentional lies (such as UPC being beneficial to SMEs).

The future of Europe is at stake because EPO corruption is like a cancer that spreads far beyond the Office and has already infested the Commission.
