Patients don't protect small inventors anymore. They are now just systems to protect large corporations from competition. Patients are instead now weaponized against local businesses and small inventors. We need major world wide patient reform.

I think your auto-correct has gone wrong; patients rather than patents 3 times.

Totally agree with your point though. I'd extend it to include copyright reform as well as patents; intellectual property rights are being abused globally and used as a way to abuse citizens.
