  Comments: For software, patents are a crime against the public. In general, the current system erect artificial barriers to entry for smaller businesses, it is against economic emancipation. EU drones purport this as an incentive to innovation, but in reality they want to protect the interest of few.

  Comments: Patente, insbesondere Softwarepatente helfen nur Monopolisten. Nicht mehr der Schutz der Erfindung, sondern Geldschneiderei und das Verdrängen von Konkurrenten stehen im Mittelpunkt.

  Comments: Current patent system fails in it purpose - it inihibits invention instead of supporting it. It only serves the large companies instead of being fair to everyone. It allows to patent generic ideas, even the most simple ones.

  Comments: I believe that patent law IS vital to todays world and global market, however, the patent law should help the system - not further strengthen its weaknesses.

  Comments: There isn't a single instance where a patent has been good for the public. We need, ideally, to just dismantle the patent system entirely. It's simply false to claim ownership of an idea; it's outrageous to claim pre-emptive ownership of some _else's_ idea.
