= General Introduction =

The European Patent Office (EPO) has been granting [[Software Patents in Europe|software patents all across Europe]] despite the law (as per [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Patent_Convention the EPC]) ''explicitly'' forbidding it. The profit motive ultimately compromised patent ''quality''; the problem was obscured by publishers like [[IAM]] but repeatedly stressed by [[SUEPO]], the Staff Union of the EPO. There were even more mischievous practices going on, ''especially'' after the EPO's former head, Alison Brimelow, got replaced by a megalomaniac called [[Benoît Battistelli]] (now in [[CEIPI]]), who gradually drove away anything or anyone who threatened his undemocratic ambition of ''total'' power. He was helped by [[Jesper Kongstad]], [[Christoph Ernst]], [[Raimund Lutz]], and [[Željko Topić]]. There was a culture of blatant nepotism (e.g. [[Elodie Bergot]]) and disrespect for courts, e.g. [[Willy (Guillaume) Minnoye]] stating intent to ignore (disobey) court rulings. He even rejected [[ILO]] rulings and sought an unconstitutional court, the [[UPC]], promoted by big litigators such as [[Bristows LLP]]. Battistelli chose [[António Campinos]], a French dual national (born in [[France]]) from [[EUIPO]], as his successor (soon joined by former colleague [[Nellie Simon]] and [[Stephen Rowan]] from [[UKIPO]]). Both block ''Techrights'' at all EPO sites, not just in [[Germany]], in order to prevent staff from accessing facts; [[IP Kat]] was also temporarily blocked (until it stopped exposing EPO abuses). EPO problems persist to date, but European media is reluctant to mention these.
