ES: Microsoft Todavía Cabildea Por las Patentes de Software en Europa, incluso Fingiendo ser Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas PYMES

Old world



(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Una reciente hornada de las actividades que proporcionan una vista en como Microsoft cabildea por la patente europea y algunas otras lecciones de la Oficina Europea de Patentes EPO.

La patente europea (o la patente de la UE) fue descarrilada[http://techrights.org/2011/03/16/eu-treaty-vs-swpats/], solamente uno no debe olvidar como Microsoft ha cabildeado por éllas más agresivamente que cualquier otra compañía nosotros que seamos consciente de; y Microsoft no es incluso una compañía europea. Para ayudar a el novicio, Microsoft quiere la patente europea debido a su impacto en patentabilidad del software en Europa y usando sus grupos frontales, Microsoft ha estado ejerciendo presión sobre Europa para adoptar la patente europea. La más notable entre esos grupos delanteros fue el cínico: Estadounidenses por Tecnología "Competitiva" ACT, que finge representar pequeñas empresas mientras que sus cheques llegan del campeón de ética: la Microsoft Corporation. El presidente de la Fundación para una Infraestructura de Información Libre, FFII escribe[http://twitter.com/zoobab/statuses/46100775226720256]:



Microsoft promueve las patentes del software para las PYMES - Las Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas.


Él señala a esta nueva página[http://www.microsoft.eu/Futures/Viewer/tabid/64/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/889/An-Innovation-Union-for-SMEs.aspx] donde Microsoft también cabildea "a favor" de las pequeñas empresas por sus muy propios intereses como monopolista. Para citar la mentira:

Las pequeñas y medianas empresas - PYMES - serán la central eléctrica de la Unión de la Innovación que la UE debe convertirse en si debemos disfrutar de prosperidad sostenible frente a una competición mundial siempre más fuerte.

Con nuestras ofertas de la unión de la innovación el 6 de octubre, la Comisión Europea está pidiendo una impulsión concertada en el europeo, el nacional y los niveles regionales hacia tres objetivos generales.


Como si eso no sea bastante desvergonzado, hay una cierta corrupción política en Europa, cortesía de Microsoft, como de costumbre. Microsoft Polonia fue confirmada oficialmente como un socio de la presidencia polaca de la UE, escribe Microsoft Europa[http://twitter.com/MSEurope/status/44786314884820992] (que FINGE CONVENIENTEMENTE SER UNA compañía EUROPEA) y durante los últimos 2 años hemos demostrado que ese Microsoft pagó a otras presidencias con base en la UE las cuáles entonces promovían patentes del software en Europa. Es una forma de soborno y todo lo que da realmente es un manojo de LOCK-IN. Para citar estas últimas Relaciones Públicas[http://www.microsoft.eu/Posts/Viewer/tabid/120/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/882/Microsoft-Poland-officially-confirmed-as-a-partner-of-Polish-EU-Presidency.aspx?utm_source=SocialMediaPush&utm_medium=socialmediarepublishing&utm_term=&utm_campaign=MSsocialMedia&utm_content=]:

Junto con Jacek Murawski Microsoft Administrador General de Polonia, Brad se unió al ministro Dowgielewicz en la firma de un acuerdo de la sociedad y la declaración de cooperación, en base de la cual Microsoft apoyará la presidencia de la UE del polaco con préstamos del software de tiempo limitado (400 oficina 2010 y 400 Windows 7 licencias) así como con la comunicación común y actividades promocionales. Los representantes del ministerio y de Microsoft tenían también una ocasión de discutir las prioridades de la presidencia polaca, particularmente como se refieren a la industria de IT.


Techrights nunca olvidó qué Microsoft una de las compañías más éticas de mundo hizo en Polonia para comprar votos[http://techrights.org/2007/08/31/poland-ooxml/]. La Comisión Europea dijo que lo investigaría, pero lo hizo nunca realmente, alegado debido a la complejidad. Mientras tanto, el presidente de la FFII[http://twitter.com/zoobab/statuses/44869341044412416] señalo el nombramiento del titular de las patente de software 3DHistech de parte de la EPO[http://www.epo.org/news-issues/news/2011/20110303.html] y otras compañías para el inventor europeo del 2011 (ninguna sorpresa aquí). Él también comparte este pedazo de noticias[http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110215/01010213094/be-careful-what-you-wish-taiwan-using-us-pressured-patent-laws-against-us-companies.shtml] sobre la ley de patente de los E.E.U.U. que resulta ser una maldición a los Estados Unidos (así que presten atención, Europe/EPO). Para citar: Es realmente increíble cómo la Cámara de Comercio puede ser tan miope. Su presión de cabildeo da a gobiernos extranjeros perfectamente las herramientas proteccionistas legales que pueden utilizar contra las compañías de los E.E.U.U. que a la CdC supuestamente se le paga para representar. Si fuera miembro de la Cámara de Comercio, querría mi parte del dinero devuelta.

Está todo sobre el cabildeo -lobbyism-, es todo sobre intereses especiales, y es sobre aquellos en el poder asegurándose de que permanezcan en el poder. Cualquier cosa que Microsoft dice es bueno para Europa es exactamente lo contrario. Para crédito de Apple, nunca participa realmente en este tipo de abominables actividades, a diferencia de Microsoft. Parece a veces como Microsoft es un continente pues su comportamiento es definitivamente único. Microsoft es una de las compañías más éticas del mundo.
