That's a fair point, and part of why I'm asking here, I'm not sure what the perfect answer is, but it should definitely not harm genuine inventors. Maybe some level of scrutiny such as, if you bought a patent from another entity who never built it, and there's no evidence you're building it? I don't know why anyone who would buy a patent and then only sue for violations would be a good faith patent owner in any way.
- curio_Pol_curio 7mo agoIt's an old concept that "the system [of property]" has a hard time fighting: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/absentee-owner.asp https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/absentee-owner.asp Think about what allows the toxic management company to thrive, eg, by becoming the principal (part of it is an identity problem I pointed to in sibling comment) The garden hose example is a good faith scenario but maybe it still feels icky to you because they arent the "genuine inventors" :) How are they going to prove that? Put up a diff tree of their improvements?
