Major issue with this is that patents were initially designed to benefit engineers, inventors, and scientists who come up with new research. Patents are designed to allow them to profit off of their own discovery. With a patent, other companies that want to use their idea have to go through them, they don't need a product. Your idea breaks the entire point of patents.

Something that's often missing from arguments like these are how to improve the system without disposing of it entirely. Patents are critical to protect innovation, without a doubt. Manufacturing is always cheaper than R&D, and the start-up time to manufacture new items is shrinking. I don't think patents are bad, it's just the way they're implemented that's bad.

A new engine fan design might help improve efficiency, but unless you can also make new body designs, make better heat dissipating systems, you can't turn it into a product yet. 2) This only helps big companies that can churn out products really quick. If your implementation (which necessarily involves a lot of parties for materials, 3D printing, etc.) leaks your invention, a big company can churn out the product much quicker than you and file a patent for an invention you created.

Good example for a patent troll is the following: In Germany, some years ago when black Friday wasn't really a thing there, some Chinese firm bought the name brand "Black Friday". So now every shop doing a black Friday promotion has to either pay that firm a fine or has to rename their sale to "Red Friday", "Black Week", "Black Weekend", etc. It's funny seeing the same company using the term black Friday in Sweden, but renaming it in Germany

The Everything Store by Brad Stone covered this pretty well in his book. I also like this in video form!

The "Non obvious for anyone skilled in the trade" is the root of all patent problems. Why are so many dumb things awarded patents when many reference previous art upon which no non obvious improvement is achieved ? Trolls wouldn't be able to file patents if it patents were not given away. Companies wouldn't be able to sue each other for mundane features if they were not awarded patents for anything. I think patents are given away so easily because it's a big business for lawyers and patent office, so there's a lot of lobbying so things are not changed by politicians.

On the Pharmaceutical innovation end you are exactly right about innovation. Trade secrets dont work in pharmaceuticals very well. When you’re looking at a chemical compound like a drug it’s pretty easy to analyze what it is made of, and it had to go through extensive FDA approval processes that document it pretty thoroughly. So yes, patent law leads to high prices for the first 20 years a drug exists, and yes, some people can’t afford it during that time period. However the drug would not be developed at all if it weren’t for patent law protecting it. So in the interest of getting new drugs we allow high prices for the first 20 years because new treatments save the most lives in the long run.

@@Carewolf The funding generally also comes from private companies. Honestly, without patent system, the medical field would not be making as much breakthroughs. Patents are necessary. It just needs to have higher standards for patenting (aka a better system). You need to reward people for creativity and innovation, not punish them. The problem is, making that kind of situation is very difficult without trying to screw those innovators because everyone is trying to figure out ways to take advantage of the system.

Patent trolls are messed up, greedy people. Like someone has a patent for stick. Why would any government recognize these patents. I say down with "patent trolls".

These videos are so good

Ebay had the Buy It Now option sooner than Amazon had. XD

What software do you use to make your video slides?

I think it would be best to keep patents to secure innovation, but with some major changes. 1) Patents should be annulled if the patentholder are not actively working towards getting it to market (parameters could be investments, people getting hired on the specific project and so on, depending on the industry) 2) Patents should expire faster (maybe 5 years, maybe depending on industry). To be clear this is thoughts based on the video, and has not been thought through. Still think it's better than today's patentsystem, and what would happen without patents completely.

There's actually a disincentive to search for prior patents concerning an idea, because if you then use the patent (even if it is worthless) you're seen as wilfully (rather than inadvertently) abusing the patent, which under US laws carries (I believe) triple damages. As a result, the patent laws wind up working against their supposed core aim of encouraging dissemination and use of prior art.

Man, Amazon is expensive compared to other markets. The shipping alone costs more than the product it self and it’s region locked. No wonder why Chinese markets will continue to dominate.

I actually work within an industry that uses and needs patterns while also working closely with areas patents are a waste of time. The real issue with them - is they're far too broad, patents should be used only to target very specific products which need the push for innovation. I'm going to be blunt - the vast majority of software has basically no right to patents, trade secrets? Maybe. But patents? Not at all. The industry is too large and too many people work on it to restrict ideas to one company, ideas simply aren't unique - and the best ones will be thought of by multiple people because they're good ideas - but not some unique world-changing innovation, and they rarely take that much time to design and produce. On the other hand, if you compare it to say - designing a complicated chip or piece of machinery - it's fine to patent that particular design, those do take years of research and because they're so specific someone can make similar without being able to actually steal all your work. Even with that said I've never liked or trusted patents - they keep the best products expensive. I mean the main reason parmesan cheese is so damn expensive is only one company is legally allowed to produce it. I just don't trust patents not to be abused to make everything more expensive and while that matters less to me nowadays - that matters a whole lot more to the vast majority of people who can't afford it. Patents should be a lot, lot shorter - and companies should be allowed to take ideas IF they can produce it more efficiently and cheaply - because that in itself is a worthwhile innovation!

When I first saw the title I thought it was: The Case Against Parents

Good overview of the negatives, but not broad enough on the positives, like the protection small new companies against larger ones. As the argument is presented, it seems like the negatives outweigh the positives and we would be better off getting rid of the system.

I believe you have protection on your patent even if the process is not complete so long as it is in the process. I think as long as it passes, you have the grounds to claim it against somebody else. Also, you can claim a patent if you can prove you had the idea before somebody who patented it within a reasonable time. I think this is to prevent people from stealing and patenting information.

Where do you get all this knowledge from?
