I wouldn't be surprised if the US pulled out their troops and the NKs walk across the border. As the Sankaku posters say, perhaps banning SK IPs from Battle.net might be punishment enough.
NUCLEAR LAUNCH DETECTED!

After seeing Nokia vs Apple and Kodak vs Apple and RIM, I think there really needs to be patent reform. Sure, you want to protect an idea, but there are companies who patent ideas and never used the patent. When someone uses the patent they don't use, they sue for money. They are known as patent trolls and that can be seen as a reason why the patent system in the US is broken. I'm sure that it won't happen in other countries... or is it?

However, if these companies are granted these type of patents that is so general, it just proves that the patent system is broken since they shouldn't be granted in the first place, just like Nokia's GSM technology which is used in most cell phones.

In a bit of irony there was an ad in the local paper a few days ago of Xerox reminding people and photocopying services to refrain from using the term "xerox" to define photocopying services since xerox had become a common term for it.

The whole patent system begins to generate more costs because of bureaucracy then actual patent fees. Most companies calculate a certain portion of the gross profit margin of a product for possible patent disputes. Knowing they won't be able to verify their product does 100% not breach (in part) any of the gazillion patents (micro solutions).

Besides, talking about China, their rise is quite disturbing. If you are an Asian that is.

Not really, but the fear mongering west would be pushing this notion. It's pretty much established that China just wants to maintain land that has traditionally been Chinese, like say tibet, or taiwan, which have been part of the chinese empire ever since Shi huang di united all of china, it's not so farfetched for a country to want to maintain the borders that were established from the rich history that most chinese are quite in love with. It's why there are the swiss alps and the french alps because those borders were ordained by traiditonal segregation due to the churchs power.

In France, there's the added bit that you can't buy a license and not use it for X years, but all it means is that the rights revert to the patent holder. If you're it, you can forbid everyone to use the tech for as long as the patent holds. In theory, there are circumstances where the government will force you to license it, but again... subjectivity + lawyers. |
