More Calls for Patent Reform
09/28/2004 1:26PM
From
slashdot
: "On the heels of the PriceWaterHouseCoopers
report
about the threat of SoftPats to innovation, comes a
book by a Harvard B School and Brandeis economics professor
about how
broken the patent system is in general
. In short their book argues that the entire system is a (stunned silence) scam. (They actually call it 'a creator of litigation and uncertainty that threatens the innovation process itself' instead but that's cause you don't get tenure for using words like 'scam'.) Interesting to see that its gotten so bad that a professor of Investment Banking at Harvard even thinks something oughta be done."
