  Microsoft may become 'major opponent of patents'
Time: 19:28 EST/00:28 GMT | News Source: ZDNet UK | Posted By: Andre Da Costa

Open source advocates believe Microsoft may stop supporting software patents if other companies start copying its approach to them. Microsoft has been a major proponent of software patents, securing some 3,000 over the last 20 years but open source experts now claim that far from profiting from the system, the software maker may actually become a victim. Speaking at the LinuxWorld conference in London on Wednesday, Mark Shuttleworth, founder of the Ubuntu Linux distribution, said that although Microsoft is seen as being very pro-patent at the moment, if every other software maker enforced its patents in the same way then Microsoft would find it very difficult and expensive to do business.

What is all this Microsoft is the big bad guy stuff; I don't shop at Walmart and support the Chinese governement; you shouldn't use Linux for the same reason. The only persons wanting to kill off Microsoft are the non-Americans whom for some reason think that Linux is American product. God bless the USA.

so, let me get this straight. this is one of those MAD things. patent enforcement runs the risk of mutually assured destruction of the computer/electronic industry.

this flies in the face of about two hundred years of patent law. nevertheless, i suspect that this is actually the current state of affairs. i also bet that this state of affairs was brought about by greedy companies seeking to protect their trademarks like disney.

when patents and trademarks can be held for decades this stifles innovation via litigation. all new ideas are built on the shoulders of previous concepts.

over protection of old ideas suffocates new ones.

Red Herring alert! The open sore community can only hope that patent holders will not litigate should their patent rights be violated. Meanwhile, the open sore community has failed to invent anything really new, but copies the heck out of proprietary companies' products.

Meanwhile, it is IBM that holds the most patents in the computer industry and continues to patent their intellectual property. It is only because of their erstwhile "friendliness" toward open sore that this fact is "overlooked" in this article.
