@pluralistic , I hate patents and I would like to make sure that nobody can patent a device I designed (see https://web.archive.org/web/20230429235855/http://scnat.net/scnat/published/In+Cam+Audio+Lag and https://mamot.fr/@lutzray/109713011915084139 ) But I don't have the money nor the time to apply for one. I learned that public disclosure won't necessarily block an application by someone else. Any suggestion? #patenttroll

Someone is knowledgeable about US patents and Canadian ones? I though 'prior art' or obviousness were sufficient to invalidate any patent infringement allegation... The Kickstarter campaigner even states this in his project description: "It's such an obvious idea that it should already exist!" and he got a US patent for it 🙄

I described the EXACT same idea on a public forum in 2016.

I see he didn't get a Canadian patent for it, should I file one? (I'm a Canadian citizen). #patenttroll

I preordered a 3-pack of #Mycroft Mark IIs in November 2018, the same month Voice Tech Corp, the #PatentTroll who was able to sue them out of existence without even winning, incorporated in patent-troll-friendly Texas. Estimated delivery date was December 2018.

The first peep out of Mycroft about the lawsuit was in February 2020. Under different circumstances, I might have even contributed money to fight the trolls. But by then I'd already asked for a refund and had been told no because "we're committed to shipping all units". The fact that they were now ALSO getting sued just felt like further excuses for not delivering.

At this point, I don't know at all how much patent trolls actually committed to the death of the project. But I do know I'll never be participating in another #Kickstarter again.

There is nothing just about a society where someone can cost you a million dollars by suing you without even having to win the lawsuit. The only rational thing to do in a society like ours, at least if you are completely lacking in morals, is to become a parasite on those who actually try to create things. At least until nobody creates anything anymore, which is basically where we are when it comes to computing.

Is that right? RED (the camera maker) obtained a US patent for compressing raw video regardless of algorithms used? Please, correct me...

Det här är för djävligt.

Patent- och upphovsrätten behöver utformas så att det inte låter parasitverksamheter utpressa hederliga företag och organisationer! #patenttroll
