<p>Android and Chrome water down the Linux philosophy, but they are Linux, and they teeter on the balance of open-source and corporate-friendly. Most people running Android in the US are running the Google version. That's fine. They want that level of support, protection, and assurance. But AOSP and the kernel are still open to flexibility. </p>

schestowitz

<p> That's where the political becomes the practical. Open-source projects like Linux allow for change in a way proprietary software doesn't—even if the change goes in a direction that older fans might not applaud. </p></blockquote></li>

"I expect it will be as in any other court. When a party is brought to court and is not interested in a decision, this party challenges the competence of the court from the start. In pharma cases you can argue that Munich and Paris are not competent, in all cases you can argue that the PPA requirements were never met. If unsuccessful, you can argue the same in appeal and finally at the CJEU.'

-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | The Unified Patent Court. Do we finally have a predictable timeline? - The IPKat

schestowitz

Whatcomes to my mind is the expression "Fake it till you Make it", which for me sums up the times in which we live today. The market demands success, and so you must deliver exactly that, if you are to survive.

schestowitz

If you are Wirecard's CEO, Braun, you fake the success of the company until that market success finally arrives, in the real world. If you are the Theranos CEO, Elizabeth Holmes, you fake the success of your blood-testing company until, one day, Theranos does actually make it.

schestowitz

And if you are a proponent of the UPC, the rule still applies. To impress the powers that be, you need to fake its success for as long as it takes to get the UPC up and running. All the way to the CJEU if need be.

schestowitz

Not saying though that the comparison fits perfectly though. In the cases of Theranos and Wirecard, Braun and Holmes are of course both now in prison.

Dear Patent Wolf,

schestowitz

You ask the question for which I honestly do not have an answer. I thought of it myself and have not come to a solution or seen a solution published anywhere.

schestowitz

This does however not mean that it would be right to do so.

schestowitz

It is actually a question for specialists in international public and constitutional law. The UPCA has never been vetted by constitutional specialists or the CJEU. One wonders why.

schestowitz

It is a question of international public law as it is about an international treaty and the VCLT applies. It is a question of constitutional law as the right to the legal judge would not be respected by acting clearly against the letter and the spirit of the UPCA.

schestowitz

There is also another aspect: I do not think that the countries fighting for the reallocation of the London duties to their country, Italy, The Netherlands and Ireland will simply accept to be bypassed “provisionally” by Paris and Munich. The whole business of wanting a provisional allocation to Paris and Munich does not make any sense. If it has to change, then why not decide where it has to go for good before the start of the UPC.

schestowitz

The whole business of the provisional allocation is based on a very tortuous interpretation of the UPCA. It was first uttered by a French lawyer who wanted to keep the Brexit gift to France, but when it came to the second ratification, the Germans also claimed it for themselves. This legal basis for this provisional allocation is not existent and again wishful thinking so as the UPC can start as soon as possible.

schestowitz

The necessity of indicating the seats of the different sections of the central division in the UPCA is the result of the intense haggling between FR, DE and UK. For the ratification the position is easier as the formula chosen implied the necessary ratification by those three states.

schestowitz

It is purely a gut feeling, but I think that the proponents of the UPC will go forward in the hope that nothing will happen. I rather think this is putting their heads in the sand.

schestowitz

I would guess that a party losing before the UPC after a decision of the UPC in one of the technical areas which should be dealt with in London will make everything possible to get to a court, be it in its country of origin or at the CJEU.

schestowitz

In spite of not having an answer to your question, I cannot see the UPC starting in mid-2022, the Damocles sword hanging over it being very dangerous if not lethal.

schestowitz

schestowitz

" The "until you make it" bit for UPC is when enough people have spent money on UPs that no court feels they can simply smash the UPC system on essentially technical grounds."

There is in fact an ancient Occult Religion, comprised of diverse, interconnected networks of world-wide adherents... a spider's web of sorts. At the ideological core of this religion it postulates that knowledge of the human psyche and knowledge of the laws of the universe should be occulted (hidden) and held only by a few human beings. It is much more accurate to perceive these Dark Occultists as a version of Satanism, and not your Hollywood

schestowitz

indoctrinated version. Practically, in practice, they are best understood as an ancient blood line of psychologists who hold and wield hidden information, thus power, in ways which exploit and manipulate those who remain ignorant of it and them.

"Surprisingly accurate for a CounterPunch article. I take issue with their characterization of enlightenment thinkers believing in the "inherent rationality" of people (nobody was more aware of the lack of common rationality than they) and also the characterization that a move to local government is a push for more corporate and religious power (IMO the push for local government is a move to keep power in the hands of the people instead of globalist

schestowitz

elites and corporations). The rest of the article is accurate though, be it establishment Democrat or Republican, they are pushing a new secular orthodoxy, which punishes divergent ideas and ideals that are corporate/globalist policies cloaked in activism. And anyone that challenges the orthodoxy is "anti-science" or "racist" - sadly too many have already bought into these ideals."
