EPO Management Glorifies Illegal Agenda and Violations of the European Patent Convention (EPC) to Impress the Administrative Council

Summary: As the meeting of the Administrative Council approaches the "Mafia" brings out the lies and makes a "happy face", helped by lobbyists and patent maximalists that pursue an illegal agenda and deliberate violations of the European Patent Convention

THE MANAGEMENT of the EPO is utterly corrupt and its corruption is fully supported by those who stand to gain from it, e.g. by ratifying the illegal and unconstitutional, then rushing through an illegal "Unitary Patent" system (UPC) that only crooked Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos would be willing to lie about, being the psychopaths that they are. They also boast/brag about the fake "Ombuds service" [1, 2] having scuttled the real one a decade ago. The law ceased to exist!!! The "new normal" is kangaroo courts and phony oversight (where overseers are bribed, controlled, complicit).



"This is just typical 'lobbyism' from EPO management, which is desperate to seem successful and desirable ahead of this week's meeting in Munich."UPC propaganda is being shown above; it's a Trojan horse for European software patents among other illegal things. The illegal agenda is being supported by "Christoph Ernst, Vice-President for Legal and International Affairs [who] thanked all SACEPO members for the inspiring and insightful exchange of views."

Ernst is incredibly corrupt and he thanks lobbyists who do not represent Europe or European businesses. The puff piece (warning: epo.org link) fails to even mention who's inside SACEPO.

This is just typical 'lobbyism' from EPO management, which is desperate to seem successful and desirable ahead of this week's meeting in Munich. Reality reveals the exact opposite of success and desirability.

Sadly, as we showed here in past months, the Administrative Council is itself filled with liars, so they're easy to impress with lies and buzzwords, not facts ofr substance. The EPO brought together dozens of nations, but the common denominator ended up being the most corrupt members. Gravitating towards worst of the worst, motivated by greed at the expense of the law.
