●● Virtual Oversight


Posted in Europe, Patents at 10:53 am by Dr. Roy Schestowitz


This past Friday’s update


Summary: “eMeetings” that simulate an impression of oversight are like ‘ViCo’ to simulate access to justice; will that ever change and will oversight be restored at EPOnia, Europe’s second-largest institution?

THE ‘sofa surfers’ from dozens of nations will ‘meet’ again in a few weeks to discuss the EPO. Don’t expect António Campinos to be criticised for his mishandling of Benoît Battistelli‘s unlawful “strike regulations”. Don’t expect them to bring up patent quality either (while the EPO grants loads of European software patents using the excuse of “Hey Hi” or “4IR” or whatever).

“Europe is under attack by a cabal of self-serving interest groups that prey on scientists and imperil science.”We’ll soon commence another series and we’re still in contact with political offices in Europe. Many people will be watching the actions — or inaction — of the misadministrative council (maladministration).


As we noted yesterday, "The EPO Must Forsake Its Diplomatic Immunity and Quit Pretending It’s About Patent Law (or Any Law)" because as of this moment, with the constant lobbying for an unconstitutional UPC, the EPO comes across as little but a front group of litigation companies and multinational monopolies, neither scientists nor Europe. In the process, the perception and practice of law in Europe rapidly erodes. There are many comments to that effect here, and to quote one little portion: “For EPLA, its promoters asked the opinion of CJEU. We all know the result: not conform to Union law, cf. C 1/09. And EPLA was dead.”

Europe is under attack by a cabal of self-serving interest groups that prey on scientists and imperil science. How many scientists are even in the panels below? Not many. █


It’s all “eMeetings” for ‘essential services’ like monopolies
