EPO Corruption is a Real Threat to the European Union (EU). The EPO Helps Russia. If It Does Not Reform or Reboot, It Can Contribute to the Collapse of the EU and UPC (Which Was Never Legal or Even Constitutional, It's a Captured Kangaroo Court Controlled by the Patent Litigation Industry).
Why is the second-largest institution in Europe, the EPO, so eager to help the man below by reinforcing if not proving claims of corruption? The EPO also funded Putin's war on Europe.
WE despise the person above. He has nothing positive to offer. Sadly, however, he is helped by the actions of the EPO and at the moment, as both the German and French governments have domestic crises (disarray; lack of unified leadership, power vacuum), national German broadcasters are willing to openly admits it represents a threat to the EU as a whole.
The EPO has 3 official languages: English, German, and French.
If the EU goes under, Putin would be ecstatic (he weaponised mass migration, according to EU and Finnish authorities). This would also doom UPC and some bad things (I actually received threats for challenging these totally illegal 'courts').
Given what happened very recently in Syria, South Korea and Romania (to name a few), do not underestimate the possibility of an EU collapse. Schengen is now admitting some questionable nations, as does the EU, gasping and rushing to add more countries before Putin "takes them". Corruption does not seem to matter anymore. These things can start and escalate very fast (days). This is hardly governance anymore; it's crisis management.
In the case of the EPO, Croatian politics or Balkan standards have become the EPO's own standards. So we're basically dealing with white-collars criminals who unwittingly act like a gang and constantly threaten people like myself who speak about what they're up to (because they fear they might get caught and actually face the consequences at the state level, not the Internet).
One growing concern that we have is that by exposing EPO corruption we might unintentionally "help Putin" because that takes its toll on the EU's reputation. But what's the alternative? Let EPO corruption (also inside the EU) carry on? As an associate put it: "The UPC gets very little visibility, basically none, in the news."
When I told this associate about threats I had received (for covering these obvious illegalities) the response was that "we can presume the other journalists receive similar treatment."
"The threats ought to be mentioned periodically when covering the UPC. Otherwise people will wonder why the other journalists are so quiet on the topic. That reminder would be worth a paragraph on its own in each UPC post..."
We'll try to habitually mention this (Microsofters operate similarly [1, 2]), but as a matter of priority we'll release EPO leaks, starting with the next article (there will be one more tomorrow). █
