"Versus, what? No public funding? No private utilization of public research?"
Versus the taxpayer-funded I.P. being licensed to all parties in the country that funded it with the big corporations being forced to compete on better implementations delivered faster to customers. Big players can try to make billions, small players can innovate on top of same I.P. without a lawsuit, and individuals can even attempt to homebrew their own without a lawsuit.

- nickpsecurity 9y agoIt's private companies doing the wofk with a track record of patenting and suing over their tech. Quite a bit of tech funded through NSF and DARPA gets patented. So, it should be assumed and mitigated.
