Barack Obama, la propriété intellectuelle, la langue de bois, Michael Crichton, à lire…

Sur TechCrunch aujourd’hui une interview du sénateur Obama.
Très intéressante. J’en extrait la question/réponse sur la propriété intellectuelle.
Pas nécessairement le plus moderne des candidats le Barack mais à fond pour Net neutrality.
Et ça c’est bien.

Parenthèse: sur le même sujet, la propriété intellectuelle, il faut lire le très divertissant et questionnant “Next” dernier roman de Michael Crichton. On ne s’ennuie pas une seconde, on rit et on réfléchit. Not bad!

Allez, je vous laisse avec Barack Obama

Intellectual Property

MA: Do you think changes are needed in the way the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office reviews and grants patents?

BO: I know that it is essential we have a system that produces timely, high-quality patents. By improving predictability and clarity in our patent system, we will help foster an environment that encourages innovation. Giving the Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) the resources to improve patent quality and opening up the patent process to citizen review will reduce the uncertainty and wasteful litigation that is currently a significant drag on innovation. With better informational resources, the Patent and Trademark Office could offer patent applicants who know they have significant inventions the option of a rigorous and public peer review that would produce a “gold-plated” patent much less vulnerable to court challenge. Where dubious patents are being asserted, the PTO could conduct low-cost, timely administrative proceedings to determine patent validity. As president, I will ensure that our patent laws protect legitimate rights while not stifling innovation and collaboration.
