USPTO Increases Scope Of Amazon's 1-Click Patent

An anonymous reader writes "While the patent office had rejected earlier attempts by Amazon to get a continuation patent on its infamous "1-click" patent, it appears that an impatient USPTO examiner has approved the continuation, apparently because of the failure of BountyQuest to come up with prior art. This continuation adds claims like contacting the recipient of an order via e-mail or a phone call to obtain additional info."

    The whole racism rant is an assumed thing here in the ghetto. The whole list of possible solutions or fixes to racism has also been beaten to death, and requires no addressing. We don't need to name companies which use immoral tactics, we all know the names. We don't need to cry about all of the projects which have been destroyed. We all know it's commonplace and might as well get used to it.

    No sir-ree, there is noting to see here, just the white cracker doing their jobs just as well as ever. Thankfully not everyone thought the above when it came to the systematic racist policies against niggers.
