According to videogame patent lawyer Kirk Sigmon, the USPTO granting Nintendo these latest patents isn’t just a moment of questionable legal theory. It’s an indictment of American patent law.
“Broadly, I don’t disagree with the many online complaints about these Nintendo patents,” said Sigmon, whose opinions do not represent those of his firm and clients. “They have been an embarrassing failure of the US patent system.”
Why are y’all so fucking rude?
I’m a bootlicker because I don’t think getting rid of the concept of intellectual property completely is a good idea.
Ok Bud
And you know nothing about me and whether or not I’m a musician or an artist, so you shouldn’t assume.
But I know for a fact that most artists would not be fucking ok with someone photocopying their work (that they didn’t sell) for profit.
I know this because it literally already fucking happens, and artists hate it.
You think every artist is a selfish asshole like you. That is just called projecting.
You are incapable of good faith discussion.
Hope you get help for your anger issues. Have a good weekend.

It’s interesting how other people here seem to have no issue discussing this topic with me. I wonder if they’d call me a “capitalist bootlicker” or if they’ve actually been paying attention to what I said.
