Discovering that a patent sets Piracy in motion. I
suggest (if your not wealthy) spending approximately one hundred and fifty
dollars to initiate a patent. Once you receive your file # abandon the patent
thus saving lots of money that you didn't have anyway. This will protect you of
Law suits from the pirates.
Sit back and wait. If your invention is
brilliant it won't be long before a pirate (that has lots of money) improves or
changes your idea and files his own patent.
Millions have now been spent
bringing your invention to fruition and you can easily (with all that free
advertising) go out and sell your improved prototypes.
As an
example
SKATE WALKERS --- Canada patent file #2, 116, 091
To raise
money I contacted a large sport firm to sell them this patent. I was ignored and
a year later came across my invention all improved in nice packaging with patent
pending retailing for fifteen dollars.
Well my heart sank and I really
needed a cup of coffee.
I rationalized it this way. They have spent mega
bucks on dies, production, packaging etc. I will sit back and wait till these
become popular then re approach these people to buy my patent advising them that
I could produce my prototype like pop corn and put them in 7 ELEVEN retailing at
$3. 75 a pr.

IP Europe chief denounces-
-patent troll myth--
The head of a corporate alliance that includes Nokia and Ericsson has urged the EU to ignore the so-called -patent troll myth', which he said has -little basis in fact-. In a letter to The Financial Times, published today, January 21, IP Europe executive secretary Francisco Mingorance said that the narrative of abusive litigation by -patent trolls- was a -calculated attempt to create a false rationale for weakening the patent protections of technology innovators in Europe-.

I have a few questions about patents.
I have an idea for a patent. But it's the combination of two things that are already made but not working in the way I think they should be. I can prove that they work with math and through photos. Do I need to make the new product in order to file and obtain a patent? Or is it enough to just show how it works and prove that it can work?

So, what are the differences between copyright and patent? I mean an novel technology could be considered as an art too right? What about new guitar or piano? Do they count as a patent or copyright?
And I think it is ridicilous when copyright are far more longer and easier to registered than the patent.

It seems to me because English language has a problem with interpretation that varies with different people. So the criteria for patentability is subjective. What is non-obvious to you may not be so to me. I can just say No, not non-obvious without the need to justify

Okay. but what if I use vacuum decay and apply it to the fabric of space in a specific manner so as to alter the existing laws of physics according to a well thought out critical design?
Wouldn't THOSE new laws of physics be my invention?

I'm soooo happy Crash Course is covering something that is law-related. Even though its based on the legal system of the US. I find that its great insight for non-american viewers, (like myself, great for comparison.

I feel bad for this guy. I hope he's in on the jokes about everyone satirically complaining to him. Even better I hope it's his idea. Otherwise he is just being humiliated for just doing his job.

it is simple. if someone holds more than 4 patents and has not developed at least one of them in the last 5 years. then they cannot enforce the patent restriction on another inventer

Well to be fair to the Venitians' high opinion of their city, none of them ever went to New York. For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure Venetian pizza is quite good as well.
