Como si las patentes son materia de seguridad nacional

A squirrel gagged



Sumario: Un par de nuevas historias y lo que sirven para resaltar con respecto a la teoría y práctica de patentes

LA USPTO es probablemente el más agresivo sistema de patentes del mundo. En vez de fomentar la innovación, hace lo contrario dañándola, beficiando usualmente (ENRIQUECIÉNDO) a sólo unas pocas mega corporaciones que reciben la parte del león por €´sus€´ patentes así como bloquean/suprimen la competición de esta manera.

Como un nuevo ejemplo de la agresión de la USPTO consideren el artículo de Joe Mullin que dice que una €¨compañíá de Archery enjuicia a LARPer sobre patentes, luego solicita una moción para silenciarlo€¨ (supresión de información acerca de una acción agresiva es algo que la OEP me hizo meses atrás). Para citar Mullin:

Cuando Jordan Gwyther comenzó Larping.org, un sitio web que promueve su hobby favorito, no esperaba que esto lo llevaría a ser enjuiciado por infingimiento de patentes de arrows de espuma. Cuando hablo acerca de este juicio, ni el ni su abogado vieron lo que vendría: el dueño de las patentes lleno los papeles en la corte pidiendo una orden de restricción (TRO) para acallarlo.


Curiosamente, casi en el mismo dia (como el articulo de arriba), la EFF publicó €¨la EFF Defiende el derecho de Acción Viva a Participantes en un Juicio de Patentes,€¨ donde dice €¨La Primera Emmienda garantiza que los dueños de patentes estén sometidos a las hondas y flechas del criticismo público. Hoy la EFF ha sometido una moción y un amicus breve pidiendo a la Corte rechazar los intentos de un dueño de patentes de silenciar criticismo de su juicio.€¨

Otro nuevo artículo por Joe Mullin habla de la redada de €¨hoverboard€¨ que cubrimos aquí hace unos dias porque despues de la redada la litigación fue misterisamente retirada. €¨El acusado Chino se informó en leyes, se defendió a sí mismo y requiere pagos por abogados,€¨ de acuerdo al sumario de Mullin.

La original idea detrás de las patentes fue muy diferente de esto. €¿Si hubieran previsto lo de arriba los fundadores de patentes, hubieran creado tales nuevas leyes?
