Ending the Status Quo at the European Patent Office (EPO) This Year

The EPO in Munich will soon see industrial actions of unprecedented scale. This may lead to the downfall of António Campinos. From what we've heard, some media in Europe might find the courage to write about it like Kieren McCarthy did a decade ago. A year ago I was told about the circumstances of his departure; it wasn't due to the EPO.
We have a long new series in preparation about Cocainegate, but first we give those mentioned an opportunity to reply or somehow defend themselves. If they don't reply, then we'll say that they willingly missed or skipped the right of reply.
If you live in Europe, please contact your local media and ask why it refuses or neglects to cover EPO scandals. We've heard all the excuses before.
If you work at the EPO, do join the industrial actions. Things will continue to get worse as long as the "Digital Majority" stays silent and/or passive. █
