Ask Patents is for stopping patents from being granted. I'm suggesting a way to kill patents that are already granted + monetary incentives for the worst / most expensive offenders.
- rorrr2 13y agoNot true, I've seen requests for granted patents.
- galenward 13y agoInteresting! Granted patents aren't re-reviewed, so someone would have to cough up a few tens of thousands of dollars to do anything with submissions on granted patents. Is the concept that people are contributing evidence to be used should someone challenge the patent?
- zenocon 13y agoIndeed, as stated, askpatents is not just for new patent applications. It's got a bit of head-wind right now, and the more people that get involved the better.
