Summary: Video about part 14 and additional thoughts about the Estonian Patent Office with its current chief, about 40 years younger than his predecessor


THE current delegate from Estonia (voting in the Administrative Council of the EPO) is — as is typically the case — also the head of the national patent office (NPO). He met Benoît Battistelli half a decade ago and he is still voting on proposals from António Campinos, who is stubbornly pushing European software patents and implementing cuts that make the Office less competitive.

“We need patent law that serves scientists and works best for ordinary people. Patent maximalists do not want that because the lion’s share of their income comes from monopolists, not ordinary people.”The video above discusses the sad reality of some patent offices actively working against the interest of the people whom they claim to represent. Even in the purely corporate realm, those same offices often serve the interests — or prioritise the goals — of foreign corporations. They’re in that sense international agencies (or some might say “globalist” but it’s a loaded term).
