This fear is completely irrational. There is no legal justification to allow for anyone to be arrested due to a patent violation, regardless of how powerful or rich the patent holder is. There is just no way this would or could happen.
To be fair, I'm sure I have a lot of assumptions about Russia that you would find equally ridiculous.
- leap_ahead 11y agoYou might be right that I'm being irrational. But I've really developed some apprehensive attitude towards the US over the last few years. And the worst thing is, any new day brings some new information that reinforces this fear. Things are objectively getting worse, not better. Somehow I'll have to live with it. But at least I'm not doing any business in the US, so this is not a practical problem for me.
- eunoia 11y agoI think your fears are indeed irrational. You're reading sensationalized horror stories, internalizing the fear and using it as a justification to NOT do something. I see this mentality in my aging parents and their friends who watch a lot of Fox News. Would you call me ridiculous if I told you I'll never come to Russia because I believe a joke I made about Putin years ago on the internet will get me assassinated in the streets? I would certainly hope so. Don't let irrational fear guide your decisions.
