Are the Chinese companies actually persuing IP claims? What it says about patents is concerning but there's no concrete example of practical issues from it so far.
If a Chinese company simply makes and sells a version of an open source design are they doing anything wrong? This is allowed by the licensing terms.
- nyolfen 3y agoper prusa's comments in the article, they are filing patents based on open source work at scale
- eropple 3y agoPatents, yes. Deployed patents, not to date. I have only marginal sympathy for Prusa when they aren't shipping things people want to buy.
- Fomite 3y agoBambu has been saber rattling. Ironically, I think it's less aimed at Prusa and more at their own Chinese knock-off competitors.
