Patent Nonsense

January 20, 2014 11:20:00.862

This is why I'm starting to think that a system with no patents or copyright would be better than what we have now. Amazon got a patent for... predictive stocking:

So Amazon says it may box and ship products it expects customers in a specific area will want based on previous orders and other factors — but haven’t yet ordered. According to the patent, the packages could wait at the shippers’ hubs or on trucks until an order arrives.

You see that stuff your grocery store does each week? Same thing. But some set of morons at the USPTO couldn't figure it out.

Copyright Considered Harmful

January 21, 2014 21:24:45.897

It's come to this:

Wearing Google Glass recently proved perilous for a movie patron in Columbus, Ohio. On Monday, The Gadgeteer posted a frightening story apparently from a member of the Glass Explorer program. An hour into watching Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit wearing his prescription version of Glass, he said, he'd been abruptly pulled from the theater and interrogated at length by "feds," who accused him of attempting to pirate the movie by recording it.

Exactly who is benefiting from the current system of copyright enforcement?
