Microsofters' SLAPP Censorship - Part 10 Out of 200: Showing Public Tweets is Not a Privacy Violation, But This Isn't About Justice, It's About Censorship
The EPO's President, Who Covers Up Cocaine Use, is Trying to Suppress Communication Between EPO Staff Under the Guise of 'Privacy' (and in Defiance of a Court Ruling)

Exactly One Week Before Next EPO Strike, Media Intentionally Not Mentioning EPO Strikes

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 12, 2026

Central Staff Committee (CSC) strike

Earlier this week 1,234 people went online to discuss the plans for strikes, which have thus far always attracted more than 1,500 participants.

Notice how nobody in patent-centric blogs or so-called 'IP' [sic] media bothers covering all or any of those EPO actions; they similarly ignored Cocainegate at the EPO. One form of propaganda technique/s involves the systematic suppression of certain topics, or of particular "narratives". █
