[01:24] schestowitz http://techrights.org/2021/06/18/superficial-epo-coverage/ [01:24] schestowitz I have again had the honour of being quoted in Techrights.

[01:24] schestowitz It is an honour I can do without as I do not agree to see my freedom of opinion repeatedly misused for a campaign against the EPO which I cannot support. [01:24] schestowitz Lots of things might not be optimal at the EPO, but constant slanting it is not a way to help resolving the difficulties the EPO is going through. [01:24] schestowitz I have said certain things about the way the first OP in G 1/21 went along, as my concern is the respect of existing legal rules. [01:24] schestowitz I am convinced that without respect of legal rules we go back to the jungle and the right of the strongest prevails. This is not what I wish for myself, my children and grandchildren. [01:24] schestowitz What I have said has actually nothing to do with my former quality as EPO staff. It was the view of somebody interested in the topic as it concerns an institution is am still loyal to. Any objective observer could come to similar conclusions. [01:24] schestowitz In view of the constant misuse of my honest opinion, I will now refrain from any statement relating to G 1/21. [01:24] schestowitz I do not want to help this person to constantly attack the EPO. [01:24] schestowitz It should also be kept in mind that beyond the personal attacks against some members of staff, the pet peeve of this person is the possibility of patenting programmes CII or even AI. [01:24] schestowitz I said it many times, and repeat it once more, contrary to what Mr Schestowitz thinks, CII or even AI are not forbidden by the EPC. [01:24] schestowitz The simple considerations as to why CII are well patentable under the EPC is apparently too complicated for Mr Schestowitz to enter in his brain. The doctrinal blindness and hatred of this person against the EPO is indeed flabbergasting. [01:24] schestowitz Last but not least, attacking persons for their supposed likeness with other ones or for their hair colour is absolutely abject. [01:24] schestowitz My son and my two grandchildren have red hair, and attacking a person for its hair colour is also attacking my family. [01:24] schestowitz In view of this turn of events provoked by Mr Schestowitz I have to conclude that this person has managed to silence me due to my status of former staff of the EPO. [01:24] schestowitz This does not withhold myself to have my idea about the topic and the procedure used to come to a decision. Some of the amicus curiae are quite eloquent in this respect. [01:24] schestowitz ========= [01:24] schestowitz posted in a Microsoft siye [01:25] schestowitz *site [01:25] schestowitz EPO manager [01:25] schestowitz and he supports software patents :-) [01:25] schestowitz " Daniel X. Thomas : I understand your former position puts you in a precarious position, but it would be a pity if such people succeed in silencing sound reasoning." [01:25] schestowitz he's probably just worrying about his pension [01:25] schestowitz he did not retire long ago [01:25] schestowitz and now he's used against his colleagues [01:26] schestowitz " [01:26] schestowitz For the time being "such people have indeed succeeded in silencing" me. [01:26] schestowitz I had to react. No opportunity to bash the EPO is missed by this person. [01:26] schestowitz And I do not want to contribute to this! [01:26] schestowitz The more so since it appears that the only drive for this person is to bash the EPO because it grants patents on CII. [01:26] schestowitz I rarely came across such stubbornness and stupidity. [01:26] schestowitz I feel a deep loyalty to the organisation and I will not support such a behaviour against it.
