ES: Los Grupos de Presión de Microsoft, Apple y Nokia estan Apoyando la Demanda Potencial de Patentes contra Google/WebM



Patent stooges



(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Los tres principales impulsores de MPEG-LA se acercarse cada vez más hoy cuando hay preparaciones aparentemente para hacer multimedia en la World Wide Web no-libre.

TECHRIGHTS ha estado investigando el Nokia reporte todo el dia de hoy y hay un post detallado en desarrollo (aún con objeto de ampliarlo y de la precisión creciente). A parte de todo el hoi polloi nosotros tenemos un importante tema a discutir que impliqua no sólo Microsoft y Nokia. Apple tambíen desempeña un considerable papel en él. Tiene que ver con MPEG-LA, el troll de patentes que está intentando gravar/hacer que todo el mundo PAGUE, por todo el video en la WWW y fuera de ella. La “propiedad intelectual es el software siguiente,” Nathan Myhrvold ha dicho una vez. Él es Microsoft Troll de patentes[http://techrights.org/2008/09/18/patent-troll-by-proxy/] y su idea del software es claramente incompatible con el software libre abierto (Free/Open Source Software). Éste es exactamente porqué las compañías como Microsoft han estado preparando las firmas de patentes y destruyendo las verdaderas firmas de tecnología (o asumiendo el control) desde hace mucho tiempo. Básicamente, si el software es estorbado siempre por patentes, entonces él nunca puede ser distribuido libremente. Esto hace de las nuevas leyes un vector potencial de ataque por el cual derrotar la libre competencia baratamente. Tristemente, Nokia también es parte de este cártel, sucedió al defender a la nefasta MPEG-LA. La persona que hizo esto a nombre de Nokia también había trabajado para Microsoft (la manzana no cae lejos del árbol). En nuestro poste sobre Nokia nos ampliaremos en ésto un poco. Hay rumores que Elop de Nokia pueda dar patentes a Microsoft para ataca a Androide con ellas a su debido tiempo. Es que todo lo que tiene Microsoft ahora es Windows - el portador común crucial - esta perdiendo absolutamente rápido.



"Es que todo lo que tiene Microsoft ahora es Windows - el portador común crucial - esta perdiendo absolutamente rápido."Según Jamie Love, como previsto[http://techrights.org/2011/02/05/gates-fostering-monopolies/], “Gary Locke, secretario de comercio de los E.E.U.U. (y cabildero anteriormente de Microsoft), viaja a la India para promover una protección más alta del IPR”; también vea esta página anterior de Jamie[http://keionline.org/node/968], como Locke está también cerca de la fundación Gates[http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Gates_Foundation_Critique] con todos sus monopolios y codicia de patentes/cabildeao. Las fundaciones tales como las de Bill Gates son entendidas bien por Jamie, que hace un buen trabajo siguiedo los cabildeos de Microsoft y la compra de Gates de los medios de comunicación[http://techrights.org/2010/11/28/bill-melinda-evangelization/] (para torcer la cobertura sobre su fundación).

Como lo prometido al principio, aquí es cómo Apple, Nokia, y Microsoft se conectan es absolutamente claro. Éstos son los IMPULSORES más grandes para la MPEG-LA (basado en sus acciones) y Slashdot - entre otras fuentes - informa que MPEG-LA se prepara para la extorsión/el pleito (dos caras de la misma moneda) contra codificadores-decodificador libres de multimedias[http://yro.slashdot.org/story/11/02/11/1536257/MPEG-LA-Attempts-To-Start-VP8-Patent-Pool]

La especulación se confirma a partir del año pasado, cuando un lector anónimo filtra a las noticias que el LA del MPEG ha fijado una solicitud de información sobre el establecimiento de una piscina de patentes para el codificador-decodificador del vídeo VP8.


Aquí está la fuente original[http://www.mpegla.com/main/pid/vp8/default.aspx]:

La MPEG LA LLC, líder de mundo en licencias de todo en uno alternativas patentes, anuncia una llamada para las patentes esenciales para la especificación video del codificador-decodificador VP8 usada para entregar imágenes de vídeo. El codificador-decodificador video VP8 es definido por el proyecto de WebM en http://www.webmproject.org. Para participar en la creación, y determinar los términos de autorización, para una junta licencia de patentes del VP8, cualquier partido que crea tiene patentes que sean esenciales para el VP8 que se le invita a la especificación video del codificador-decodificador que la someta para una determinación de su esencialidad por los evaluadores de la patente de la MPEG-LA. Por lo menos una patente esencial es necesaria participar en el proceso, y las sumisiones de iniciales se deben hacer antes del 18 de marzo de 2011. Aunque solamente las patentes publicadas pueden ser incluidas en la licencia, para participar en el proceso de desarrollo de la licencia, las solicitudes de patente con las demandas que sus dueños creen son esenciales para la especificación y sean probables de publicar una patente también pueden ser sometidas. La información adicional, junto con los términos y los procedimientos que gobiernan sumisiones de la patente, se puede encontrar en http://www.mpegla.com/main/pid/vp8/default.aspx.


Nokia y Apple cabildearon previamente para que las TRAMPAS de las patente de MPEG-LA permanezcan válidos en HTML5. Eso estaba hace mucho tiempo y sobrevino mucho contragolpe. Nokia y Apple fueron desemascardos por esto y Microsoft hace lo mismo actualmente. Ahora que Nokia casi es una parte de Microsoft, es mucho más fácil destacar la fuente del problema y de las maneras de tratarlo. Esta discusión continuará en un futuro post.
