Slashdot Mirror
Peek Into European Patent Examining Cancelled
We were going to run European Patent Examiner John Savage's answers to 10 Slashdot questions today, but he emailed us this morning and asked us to pull them back because he was was in trouble over the interview. What he had to say was informative, non-controversial, and would not have hurt his employer's reputation at all, but we don't want John to lose his job or face disciplinary action on our account. Anyway, get ready for a slightly unusual Slashdot interview guest next week: Celeb chef and self-described "culinary cartographer" Alton Brown.
Typical european Wuss. Why do all those foreigners wimp out. Historically, any countryman other than someone in the great United States of America, pusses out. Linus is too wimpy to take charge of his OS and the Open Sorce movement. Someone says there is no history You want history, hell france, italy, and the united kingdom and ireland were fucked in WWII until the US moved in and kicked the kaisers ass. And what about the canadiasians (members of the 8 northernmost soon-to-be United States), they (were) are protected from invasion due to the greatest military superpower in the World. Typical. He is probably a homosexual. No, he is a homosexual, a foreigner homosexual.

The EPO invoked the DCMA to prevent employee J. Savage from exposing the inner workings of the EPO's patent approval process, saying "we consider the EPO's approval process to be a trade secret protected through our jargonising encryption machine (pat.pend), and any public discussion of this process would violate upcoming EuroDCMA legislation."
Independent sources from said that Sony was working on a new jargon-compliant DRM package - OpenPatentOffice/MG - that would control and monitor all use of patented inventions automatically.

Don't they have the damn First Amendment there?
..
Don't they have the Freedom of Information Act there?
Somebody write to these losers and tell them that they need to held accountable for their despicable actions.
What a crappy place Europe has become, I'm sure as hell glad I live in the US of A where we dont have this type of thing happening.
Oh wait
Oh, so the best way to help this guy is to compound his mistake by bringing forth a barrage of criticism from the public? That will simply confirm their worst fears about someone taking the organization's PR into their own hands, and will almost definitely worsten things for him.
