I don't know every patents are anti-competitive. Generally I against software patent because some ideas are seems to obvious, but some algorithm/encoding technique could be worth patented (or say inventor should be rewarded), though it's pain to pay for each.
- mort96 4y agoThe only things patents achieve are to give huge companies the rights to squeeze small competitors out of the market, and to let patent trolls siphon money off of companies which actually make stuff. They need to go. This isn't limited to software patents. Patents don't protect the little guy. They certainly don't help the individual inventor, even though protecting the inventor is always the given rationale.
