So, too many patents are being filed. Yes, maybe there are not too many people innovating, but just folks trying to protect everything under and above the sun...
It is becoming harder to review patents...
Too many companies are fighting over them...
And, of late, the work has started becoming strenous...
Voila! The new rules of USPTO ensure that not only will all these problems go away but they will also ensure that ALL logic will be defied!!! After all, isn't it the first duty of the government to ensure that over time its services become limited, confounded, expensive and anti - public?
Why would I only have five independent claims to a patent? Why is 5 the magic number? Why cannot I have more than 2 reviews to extend my patent? And why did this just become more expensive for me ? (In case you didn't notice, the person(s) filing the patent now have to do some of the USPTO's work...)
If there is any glimmer of hope to save us from deliverance by the USPTO, it would be the public comment period ending October 9. Hopefully, this doesn't promote other branches of the government to adopt the USPTO philosophy. After all, there has been all this talk about free speech and how everybody wants it.....
