Like we're seeing at the EPO, which violates the EPC (invalidating the EPO's rationale to even exist), almost every law is being broken gleefully and the so-called 'press' cheerfully encourages breaking the law (because of the financial strings of such press)

World Intellectual Property Review: UPC transparency questions risk undermining court: The real issue is, they've not bothered explaining how it's legal; UPC is an anti-SME ploy; They quit antagonising; A bit of a straw men because the issue is that they never explain how that can even enter into force

Rory O’Neill: Opinion: UPC has missed chance to redefine D&I in patent law: Not even legal!! Straw man issue; a sensitive subject, politically-loaded; Fake notion of 'ethics' for an unconstitutional construct; Sponsored by Team UPC for UPC 'fake news'; fluff and puff pieces wordsmith

FB Rice - Eddie Walker and James Hutchison - The European Unitary Patent and Unified Patent Court: Theoretical, illegal system, Just what you have been saying every year since 2014, Profiting from suing you

Schweiger and Partners - Martin Schweiger: Start Preparing Today: UPC and Unitary Patent Are Going to Happen Very Soon! Pay me; Really? This time for real? Not only Germany can stop it; Britain stopped it years earlier

Schweiger and Partners - Martin Schweiger: Unitary Patent and UPC update in the light of Brexit. What you need to know (September 2018): So he is fully aware of the issue, which was never addressed at all

Gertjan Kuipers and Bertrand Ter Woort - De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek N.V.: Netherlands: UPC Sunrise Period: Decide On Opting Out Your European Patents: They're using that same term, 'sunrise', in 2022!

Preu Bohlig and Partner - Andreas Haberl and Konstantin Schallmoser: Countdown UPC and Unitary Patent - Strategy for patent users: Bombs too have countdowns; Sales; No, not really

Gowling WLG - Tamara El-Shibib: Middle East-based patent filers, are you prepared for the 'Unitary Patent' and the new European patent system?: Looking for clients; You're said this for over a decade

Gowling WLG - Tamara El-Shibib: Middle East-based patent filers, are you prepared for the 'Unitary Patent' and the new European patent system?: Yes, in scare quotes; if at first you fail, repost, googlebomb; Canada is not middle east

Kari L. Barnes and James Singer - Fox Rothschild LLP: United States: The Unitary Patent System: How To Prepare: Litigation giant, not even based in Europe; Pay us money for bad advice; EU; Not really, speculating again; Such a court would be illegal and unconstitutional, but litigation giants don't want you to know

Kari L. Barnes and James Singer - Fox Rothschild LLP: United States: The Unitary Patent System: How To Prepare: Let's post this marketing junk anywhere we can! No, shameless self-promotional junk

Summary: Despite the EPO pressing on with totally illegal agenda, based on deliberate falsehoods, Team UPC must get rather creative and distract from real issues using phony ones alongside bogus, baseless predictions and what they hope can become self-fulfilling prophecies (in the face of severe legal and constitutional obstacles)
