#Softwarepatents are not legal, but #patent #litigation companies are celebrating criminals who took over the #EPO and now compel examiners to grant such illegal patents, giving them tips in how to dodge the law and get away with it https://www.mondaq.com/uk/patent/1136730/software-patent-eligibility-practice-at-the-epo see http://techrights.org/wiki/Software_Patents_in_Europe
Well, #softwarepatents are not legal, but a corrupted and bribed system ceases to care about legality, it bends to #lobbying https://www.juve-patent.com/news-and-stories/cases/german-federal-patent-court-confirms-zoe-life-software-patent/ #swpats http://techrights.org/wiki/Software_Patents_in_Europe

“ #Softwarepatents are a huge potential threat to the ability of people to work together on open source. Making it easier for companies and communities that have patents to make those patents available in a common pool for people to use is one way to try to help developers deal with the threat.” -Linus Torvalds before being 'disciplined' by GAFAM
#LinusTorvalds no longer speaks out against #swpats probably because his employer and most of his bosses aren't against them. All of them risk unemployment if they 'dare' speak out on #softwarepatents and LF = GAFAM, Pentagon at this stage... http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation

Why would people wish to pay #patent lawyers who lie to them? #patents cost a lot of money and those #lawyers pocket most of that money; they actively misinform client and spread myths to perpetuate a bubble, which will burst one day (like #softwarepatents in the US)
