I can see allowing a patent on software to the extent the invention incorporates a truly novel and interdependent physical component. But plain software patents are, for the most part, bogus and ought to be outright eliminated. There is no

That wouldn't matter. If you read an application, then you know the invention exists If the application is rejected – it implies the invention is not novel. Whereas if it is granted, it implies the invention is novel. Either way, you should

It's actually not a true strict liability offense, at least in the United States. For example, 18 USC § 2252A(a)(2)(A) criminalizes " knowingly receiv[ing] or distribut[ing] any child pornography." § 2252A(a)(5) requires " knowingly poss
