I don't understand exactly what you mean by "dull patents". Is that a standard term? I'm not well versed in this space, but Google's not returning much for that

I'm guessing you mean overly broad or generic patents, i.e., not sharp and specific. I'm thinking something like a patent for adding an item to a virtual shopping cart. Am I inferring correctly?
- Aldo_MX 10y agoI used `dull patent` as a synonym of `stupid patent`[1], so you are right with the meaning you inferred. [1] https://www.eff.org/issues/stupid-patent-month https://www.eff.org/issues/stupid-patent-month
