EPO.org Now Openly Brags About Making Illegal Patents a Welcomed Part of the Examination Guidelines

Summary: The EPO persists in illegal, unlawful agenda; it's even finding the audacity to advertise this in the official Web site (warning: epo.org link)

The EPO is breaking the law at every turn and bankster (now fake President) António Campinos is trying to make it seem like illegal software patents are in 'popular demand', albeit he and his cohorts -- just like Team Battistelli -- refer to that as "CII". The video above notes that EPO examiners are already refusing to grant illegal patents (they work in adherence to the unadulterated rules, according to their ability, based on the EPC, not some unlawful guidelines which Campinos brags are a loophole around the law, by means of "processes").



Software patents here, there, everywhereWhether it's labeled "digital tech" or "CII" or "Hey Hi" (AI) or other nonsensical and misleading buzzwords, we urge examiners to reject or at least ignore those applications. If granting can be lowered by 24% in a matter of months, then that can persist and it's very clear that many colleagues do in fact participate in industrial actions. That's probably why Campinos lost his temper. As EPO employees your obligations are to the EPO, not to Campinos, whose agenda is anti-science and hostile towards Europe. Hence we refer to him as "Monopoly Tony".

Be a good examiner. Be good to the law, don't spend your life attempting to appease career mobsters and frauds. At the moment the EPO is a captured institution; it's captured by immoral, chronic liars and psychopaths. They want to destroy the EPO for personal gain.

Monopoly Tony; Goodbye, Rule of law; Goodbye, EPC; Goodbye, Vienna Convention
