    Also the patent office needs to employ actual specialists and reject the bullshit patents, like rounded rectangles.

      Exactly, and oh Christ the Apple vs Samsung on Samsung copying the iPad “design”.
      I don’t know if that was what you meant, but that’s what I immediately thought of.
      It’s like claiming a design patent for the general idea that a laptop folds out the screen, and beneath it you have the keyboard. Except it was actually worse. Because the “design” is little more than a cutting board.
