Where are the jobs? Ask the patent trolls. - The Washington Post
Keywords:
Wadhwa describes the impact of patent trolls on the U.S. patent system. He says the patent system in its current form, with extensive patent defenses by technology firms costing billions of dollars, litigation by companies that are not representing inventors, and the overall negative effects on new companies, actually reduces innovation. There has been a surge in lawsuits regarding smartphone and software patents as a result of businesses that collect patents and sue to earn money through legal settlements.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
