EPO noise machine: Cruft every day, even recycled news! Pretending to obey EC; Pretending to obey EPC; Puff piece for litigation lobbyists (SACEPO); Lobby update: List of bribes officials who relish and revel in impunity; Microsoft Windows only!! And our work sucks anyway; Things to read so as to not pay attention to real news, e.g. collapse of quality and strikes, industrial actions etc.

Summary: As just noted in a cartoon, the media isn't performing its most basic duties; instead it helps Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos distract from their crimes, along with Team UPC's illegal actions^* _____________ ^* Meanwhile, the Team UPC-funded Juve has decided to save face by mentioning EPO unrest -- something it has refused to do for years! "Translations are available in German, French and Dutch," SUEPO notes. These issues should be covered every day in all European media, including media that's not specific to patents, but money is being fed off the palm of EPO management (and Team UPC) to spread lies and cover up corruption. Why does the media refuse to hold Europe's second-largest institution accountable when all the essential information is out there, up for grabs?
