EPO and EPC Violations: With Unified Patent Court (UPC), Even the European Union and Commission Are Fully Culpable

Summary: The European Union and Commission (EU and EC) are now becoming a central part of EPO scandals; this means they will have a lot of "explaining" to do in the coming years

THE instincts (and relatives) say that this is risky, but we're now taking on the EU and UK (all the way up) by presenting factual information that "discredits" them. This is discussed at this very moment in IRC, recalling the time Benoît Battistelli hired several British law firms to bully me and spy on me in 2015. That misguided decision of his only emboldened me to write a lot more about EPO crime, which continues unabated under the wing of António Campinos, who refers to himself as "the f***ing president" (because he's psychopathic, insane, and infinitely corrupt)



"It is extremely difficult to censor us, even with threats (Team UPC sent me threats only months ago, then backed down because I took that public)."The video above speaks about what's happening right now in the EU and EC, which are in effect facilitating the EPO's corruption and ignoring victims of the EPO. The video mostly deals with last night's post, which was entitled "EPO Staff Points Out That as the European Patent Convention Turns 50 It is Grossly Being Violated by Corrupt EPO Management". We welcome any input from EPO workers -- input that they deem worthy of dissemination to colleagues. A couple of years ago somebody from the EPO told me that almost everyone at the EPO reads this site. It is extremely difficult to censor us, even with threats (Team UPC sent me threats only months ago, then backed down because I took that public).
