both of your examples are from the 90's.
It's simply incorrect to say "concept patents get granted all the time." No, they don't. You patent an invention. The claims on it may be inappropriately broad, but there have always been mechanisms to address that.
- jevoten 3y agoUnless you have a source showing things have changed for the better, I don't see how the age of my examples is relevant. Especially since they may have been granted in the 90s, but expired only very recently.
- AlbertCory 3y agoYou can find sources about the changes in patent law since the 90's. For the most salient example: CLS Bank v. Alice. Many of the abuses since then have been corrected. That's how the age is relevant.
