The latest from the #USPTO , based on a communication from yesterday afternoon, may serve to suggest the blowback is growing and applicants aren’t happy to be forced to use #Microsoft ’s #OOXML (or face severe penalties) http://techrights.org/2021/11/20/microsoft-captured-uspto/
"The #USPTO , currently headed by nobody following the resignation of Director Andrei #Iancu , grants monopolies on ideas, including algorithms (since #MartinGoetz started it).
